Accessibility is NOT just for blind people

People are different – and so are their abilities and impairments. There are a number of factors that affect how everyone accesses information, learns and communicates.

People with disabilities use the web, too

Around 1 in 5 Australians live with a disability (close to 5 million people) – and that’s not including those with temporary or situational impairments.

Web accessibility isn’t just for government sites either

There are standards that, by law, government websites must meet, but we can all benefit from more inclusive and accessible digital products and services.

It takes far less time (and money) than you might think

When web accessibility is baked into the design process from the beginning, it consumes far less time, budget and energy than when it is brushed on as an afterthought. It’s a win-win for everyone (especially your customers).

Not all disabilities are obvious to the eye

Cognitive and intelectual disorders such as dyslexia or dementia are harder to imagine than someone in a wheelchair – but they affect people trying to access information online, too.
