Actually make an impact on digital accessibility. Get renumerated £50 an hour. No obligations.
Digital accessibility improvements have been undeniable, legislation accelerated progress, but it's still rare for websites to actually be assessed by a range of disabled people. Meeting the legislation and WCAG standards is often a tickbox exercise based on automated tools! We want to change that, Actua11y is here to create a community of disabled people to do real world, "lived experience", assessment of websites.

We invite any individuals with any disabilities to join the Actua11y commmunity.

Whether you have a physical disability, visual or auditory disabilities, learning difficulties, or are neurodivergent, your participation will significantly impact the future of digital accessibility. BSL, British Sign Language, interpretor will be present for BSL users.

Fill in the following form (this should take around 5-10 minutes), and we will contact you regarding upcoming assessments we need your help with. Assessments will last 30, 60, 90 or 120 minutes.

If you can't fill in this form please email us - bethechange@actua11y.uk or use this Calendly link to arrange a chat - calendly.com/actua11y

Let’s Actually build more inclusive digital experiences for everyone!
