Access by Design Award Winners once again!
We are delighted to announce that we were winners at the Chichester and Bognor Business Awards last Friday, in the Digital Excellence Category!
The ceremony took place at the Avisford Park Hotel and was hosted by the British comedian Helen Lederer. We were deeply honoured that the judges recognised our pioneering work in website accessibility since 2006.
In our submission, we explained why we believe that we are the only company that provides all of the following, under one roof:
1) Award-Winning Accessible Web Design
2) Digital Accessibility Audits
3) Live user testing with disabled people
We have always been pioneering in website accessibility and our Accessibility Toolbar allows all users to benefit from being able to change the way a website is viewed, without relying on any 3rd party software to do so.
Our Accessibility Toolbar has recently been copied by the Scottish Parliament as an example of best practice, on a Member’s Expenses portal we helped them develop from the ground up. It should go live on the rest of the website in due course.
We also created the Web’s first mobile-friendly, fully accessible website in 2011, for which we won the Chichester Observer Award for Business Innovation in 2016.
Clive was a TED speaker on website accessibility in February 2022 and it has since been featured on TED.com. It has been viewed over 950,000 times:
In a world where over 95% of websites fail basic accessibility checks, we are proud to be not only pioneers in digital accessibility but also to be continually spreading best practice through our work.
