Design and build accessible

I’m Martin, an accessibility consultant helping companies produce digital products that everyone can use, from strategic guidance to practical support. Here’s a bit more about me and what I’m up to now.

How I can help

Whether you need help building accessibility into your team, support delivering a digital service, or a new website built from scratch, I can help.

  • Strategy and guidance

    Strategic support to shape the policies, programmes, and processes needed for long term, sustainable accessibility across your organisation.

  • Accessibility audits

    In-depth audits that provide a detailed, structured understanding of your product’s accessibility so you can plan improvements with confidence.

  • Accessibility reviews

    Fast, focused, and lightweight; accessibility reviews highlight risks, quick wins, and the changes that will make the biggest difference.

  • Training and workshops

    Practical training and workshops that grow capability and confidence, helping your teams deliver more accessible digital products.

Writing

I write a lot! You can dive straight to my blog here, but here are a couple of hand-picked articles to get you started:

  • WCAG, but in language I can understand

    An as-close-to-a-single-paragraph-as-I-can-manage summary of each rule in the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, version 2.1, level AA.

  • When design breaks semantics

    Semantic HTML is great. But sometimes following the rules is tricky. Grab a cuppa and let me tell you a story about links that look like buttons.

Accessibility in your inbox

I send an accessibility-centric newsletter on the last day of every month, containing:

  • A roundup of the articles I’ve posted
  • A hot pick from my archives
  • Some interesting posts from around the web

I don’t collect any data on when, where or if people open the emails I send them. Your email will only be used to send you newsletters and will never be passed on. You can unsubscribe at any time.
