accessibility consultancy

It is essential that your website is classified as ‘accessible’.

In order for this to be so, your site must be implemented in a certain way, and dealing with these technicalities can be a real chore for the busy Webmaster.

Many companies claim expertise in accessibility when these claims are not entirely honest. We, at Futurate, consider accessibility to be central to the web development process, and take its requirements very seriously.

Every web product that we have ever produced has complied with the requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act at a minimum of W3C WAI Single A (and many have been Double or Triple A).

And we have achieved this without compromising either the user experience or the impact of our sites.

To our knowledge, there are no other agencies that can make that claim.

And don’t just take our word for it: In 2006 we were shortlisted for the accessibility good practice awards by The National Library for The Blind and The Museums, Libraries and Archives Council.

But we offer more than web development, our services as professional consultants in accessibility have been utilised by The Museums, Libraries and Archives Council, The Joint Information Systems Committee, The Natural History Museum, learndirect, The Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development and many others.
