Meeting the Accessibility Challenge
Accessibility is now an issue for every business. Whether your company is large or small, whether you trade online or offline, whether you provide services or products, achieving accessibility is both an opportunity and an obligation.
First Accessibility addresses all aspects of accessibility, ensuring you meet the requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 (DDA) and enhancing the business environment for your staff and customers.
Website Accessibility Testing
Our comprehensive range of website accessibility services combine standards based testing and user based evaluation.
The Website Healthcheck provides a quick assessment of your website's accessibility. Our Accessibility Testing service offers additional testing options including assistive technologies and user testing.
The accessibility of existing websites can be improved by our Website Repair service, and Accessibility Consultancy is available for new and existing sites.
Accessible PDFs
If your website contains PDFs our PDF Accessibility service will ensure they are as accessible as the rest of your website. We can provide the same service for Microsoft Word documents and some other file formats.
Access to Buildings
Our Buildings Audit identifies any areas requiring attention in order to meet the requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 (DDA). Following an audit our consultants will provide you with all the support necessary to implement any required changes.
