Accessibility Audit in Lancaster
An accessibility audit for Lancaster organisations that includes the parts of the service nobody owns. Most remediation work stops at the pages the team built, while the booking widget, the payment step, the chat window and two hundred PDFs remain — and those are frequently where the journey breaks completely.
Why this comes up
The problem
The website was remediated last year and the application form is a PDF that a screen reader cannot complete.
What you get
What we deliver
- Whole journeys tested end to end rather than pages assessed in isolation
- Third-party components audited — booking, payment, chat and embedded forms
- Documents assessed, since PDFs often carry the most important content
- Findings raised with the suppliers responsible, with evidence they can act on
- Barriers ranked by how many people they stop completing something
- A realistic plan covering what you control and what must be replaced

Accessibility Audit in Lancaster — common questions
- Why audit whole journeys?
- Because a page is not a task. Somebody applying for something passes through a form, a payment provider and a confirmation email, and an assessment that finds each page individually acceptable can still describe a process nobody using a screen reader can finish.
- What can be done about third-party components?
- More than most organisations attempt. Suppliers respond to specific, evidenced findings far better than to general complaints, and where they will not fix a genuine barrier that becomes a procurement matter — you remain responsible for the service regardless of who built the widget.
- Are documents really part of this?
- Frequently the largest part. Forms, guidance and reports published as PDFs are often untagged, unstructured and effectively unreadable with assistive technology, and where the document is the only route to something the barrier is absolute rather than inconvenient.
- How should findings be prioritised?
- By who is stopped and how completely. A contrast issue on a footer link and a form control with no label are not comparable problems, and an audit that presents both as failures of the same standard leaves a team to guess — so ordering by whether somebody can finish the task is what makes the report usable.
- Do you work with businesses across Lancashire?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout North West, including Lancaster and the surrounding Lancashire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Lancaster businesses do you usually work with?
- University-adjacent research and admin systems, and visitor booking for operators serving Lake District traffic. Beyond that we work across Higher Education, Healthcare, Tourism, Manufacturing and Public Sector.
- Do you cover the areas around Lancaster?
- Yes — we work throughout North West, including Preston, Carlisle, Manchester. Lancaster is an urban area of roughly 50,000+, and we take on work across the wider Lancashire region rather than the city boundary alone.
