Government Website Design in Peterborough

Government and public sector websites for Peterborough bodies, where accessibility is a legal duty rather than a quality target. Public sector sites must meet the accessibility standard and publish a statement in a prescribed form saying exactly what does not comply and why — and that statement is checked.

Why this comes up

The problem

The accessibility statement was written once, names no actual barriers, and the service it describes has been rebuilt twice since.

What you get

What we deliver

  • The accessibility standard met and evidenced through testing, including with users
  • An accessibility statement that is accurate, dated and maintained as things change
  • Established design patterns used, since citizens already know how they behave
  • Content written for the lowest reading age that needs to use the service
  • Transparency publications organised so the required information is genuinely findable
  • Assisted digital routes described, because not everyone can complete a service online

Government Website Design in Peterborough — common questions

What do the accessibility regulations require?
That public sector websites and apps are perceivable, operable, understandable and robust to the specified standard, and that a statement is published describing compliance, listing non-accessible content with reasons, and telling people how to request an alternative format or complain.
Is automated testing enough?
No. Automated tools find a minority of issues and none of the ones that matter most — a form that cannot be completed with a screen reader, or a process that assumes a mouse. Testing with disabled users is what separates a compliant site from a usable one.
Why use the established patterns?
Because familiarity is accessibility. Citizens encounter these components across dozens of public services, and a bespoke date picker or a novel navigation forces every user to learn something new for no benefit to anyone but the designer.
What does writing for public services involve?
Removing everything that assumes prior knowledge. Statutory language, department names and internal process terms all mean nothing to the person trying to report a problem or claim something they are entitled to, and plain wording is what determines whether they complete the service or telephone instead — which costs the organisation many times more.
Do you work with businesses across Cambridgeshire?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout East of England, including Peterborough and the surrounding Cambridgeshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Peterborough businesses do you usually work with?
Distribution and stock systems for national warehousing operations, plus reporting tools for environmental services firms. Beyond that we work across Logistics, Manufacturing, Financial Services, Agriculture and Environmental Services.
Do you cover the areas around Peterborough?
Yes — we work throughout East of England, including Cambridge, Lincoln, Ely. Peterborough is an urban area of roughly 220,000+, and we take on work across the wider Cambridgeshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
