Accessible web design

Why create an accessible website?

Websites need to be as accessible as possible to as wide an audience as possible. The majority of websites are inaccessible and therefore exclude a section of the population.

For most organisations this is an issue but especially for public sector agencies who are legally required to meet certain accessibility criteria.

There is a misconception that an accessible website = a boring or ugly website. This is not the case. This website is Bobby AAA accessible which is the highest level of accessibility achievable. Design and usability were not sacrificed in favour of accessibility and our policy is that they never should be.

Accessibility audit

Recent legisaltion means that public bodies are now required to ensure that their websites are accessible. This has prompted many other private companies to ensure their sites too are accessible. Greater accessibility can also help your sites' search engine rankings.

We offer a free web audit service where we assess your website in terms of accessibility and advise you on measures required to ensure full accessibility.
