Accessibility
Website accessibility improvements so more people can use your site
Many visitors use a keyboard, screen reader, magnification or voice control to browse. We test your site the way they would, explain what blocks them, and fix the issues in order of impact.
Who this is for
- Organisations that want their website to be usable by everyone
- Companies responding to customer complaints about access
- Teams preparing for tenders that ask about accessibility
- Product teams that want accessibility built into their process
Problems it can solve
- Menus or forms cannot be used without a mouse
- Images and buttons have no meaningful text alternatives
- Text contrast is too low to read comfortably
- Error messages are unclear or invisible to screen readers

Accessibility audit
A review of representative pages against the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), using automated tools and manual testing.
Keyboard testing
Checking that every link, menu, form and dialog can be reached and used with a keyboard, with a visible focus indicator.
Screen reader testing
Testing headings, landmarks, labels and announcements with common screen readers.
Design fixes
Colour contrast, text size, spacing and focus styles adjusted within your brand.
Code fixes
Semantic HTML, ARIA where needed, accessible forms and error handling.
Content guidance
Advice for editors on headings, link text, alt text and documents.
Retesting
A follow-up check after fixes to confirm the issues are resolved.

A note on compliance claims
An audit shows how a site performs against accessibility guidelines at a point in time. We do not issue legal compliance certificates. Content changes after launch can introduce new issues, so we also show your team how to keep new pages accessible.
FAQ
Questions about Website Accessibility Improvements
Which standard do you test against?
We use the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), usually at level AA, unless your organisation requires something different.
Is an automated scanner enough?
No. Automated tools find only part of the issues. Manual keyboard and screen reader testing is needed to find the rest.
Can you fix a site built on a CMS or theme?
Usually, yes. Some issues may come from the theme or plugins, and we explain the options when that happens.
Does accessibility help SEO?
Several practices overlap, such as clear headings, descriptive links and text alternatives, which also help search engines understand your pages.
