Accessibility Web Services

It is right and commercially sensible for access to websites to be inclusive.

Our accessibility web services are here to assist you in making your website accessible so that legal requirements are met.

A recent Disability Rights Commission (DRC) report highlights the fact that over 80% of UK websites fail to meet the basic requirements of disabled people and that these website operators face severe compensation payments for non-compliance with existing legislation.

The Disability Discrimination Act clearly states that organisations must offer Internet information in an accessible form if it is "reasonable" to do so.

In the UK , by making an Internet service inaccessible you potentially lose 10 million disabled customers.

Some methods of presenting information result in Internet web-sites which are unreadable by some visually impaired computer users. Designers often misuse the internet programming language HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) to create visual effects.

A website should be accessible to everyone who wants to read it.

Our accessibility web services ensure delivery of an expert accessibility web service evaluation report which will:

Investigate your website's accessibility in terms of strengths and weaknesses
Offer specific recommendations on how to improve your website's accessibility.

Our accessibility web services team can deliver in-house training to web design teams on making your website accessible.
