Web Accessibility

In 1995 a new era of accessibility for disabled people began. The DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) was passed, stating that:

“It's unlawful for a service provider to discriminate against a disabled person by refusing to provide any service which it provides to members of the public.”

In the eyes of this law, a website is regarded as a service. The RNIB (Royal National Institute for the Blind) and DRC (Disability Rights Commission) have been pushing hard to make companies adhere to this law. The RNIB has already approached two large companies regarding their websites, when they raised the accessibility issues of the websites under the DDA, both companies made the necessary changes

CKX Design is offering accessible sites as standard where possible, ensuring that potential customers will not be discriminated against.
