Accessibility
A site that works for everyone — and keeps you on the right side of the law.
Around one in five people has a disability. If your site shuts them out, you're losing customers and risking a complaint under the Equality Act. I make sure that doesn't happen.
What I offer
-
Accessibility audit
A thorough check of your site against WCAG 2.2 AA, with a plain-English report you can actually act on — not a 90-page printout of jargon.
-
Remediation
I fix what's wrong, keeping your site looking every bit as good. Accessible and beautiful is not a trade-off.
-
Accessible builds
New site or app built to the standard from the first line, so you never have to retrofit it later.
-
Plain-English guidance
What the law actually asks of you, what matters most, and what you can safely leave for later.
What I check
The things that actually trip people up.
Accessibility isn't about ticking boxes. It's about whether a real person, on a real day, can use your site. Here's the kind of thing I test for, by hand and not just with a tool.
- Works fully with a keyboard, no mouse needed
- Readable for low-vision users, with real colour contrast
- Makes sense to a screen reader, in the right order
- Respects reduced-motion and zoom up to 200%
- Forms that explain their own errors clearly
- Tap targets big enough for shaky hands and small screens
Proof, not promises
This site passes its own audit.
Plenty of agencies will sell you "accessibility." Ask them whether their own site passes. Every page here is built to WCAG 2.2 AA and checked by hand — keyboard, screen reader, contrast, zoom. If I can't hold my own work to that bar, I've no business charging you for it.
Coming soon: a live demo right here, where you can flip on high-contrast, larger text and reduced motion and watch the page respond.
Not sure if your current site passes?
