Welcome to making your website accessible
Being inclusive and ensuring your site is available to all, irrespective of impairment, is fundamental to creating accessible websites. It is good practice, it makes economic sense, and it is the law.
Most developers/designers and content authors are mortified when they find out that they have excluded large numbers of people from accessing their websites, and that they have been discriminatory. With a little bit of effort anyone can widen their market, comply with the law and be an exemplar. Access2All can help with making this a reality by:
- Explaining the law (particularly the provisions of the Equality Act 2010)
- Identifying the issues commonly encountered by people with impairments and suggest solutions
- Demonstrating how to design websites that are accessible
- Clarifying the technical requirements of W3C WAI WCAG 2.0
- Providing guidance on the elements of good content production
- Advising on writing for the web (ensuring you reach your target audience and getting your message across effectively)
- Helping set up effective processes to ensure good practice is maintained into the future
- Identifying the challenges you will need to address on your website(s)
- Training on all aspects of web accessibility from management awareness raising through good web design to exemplary content production.
If you need help with any aspect of the above contact us at Access2All for a no committment free introductory accessibility audit - and take a step closer to having peace of mind in knowing that your website is accessible.
