About the community

Accessibility legislation requires public sector websites and mobile applications to meet clearly-defined accessibility standards.

We are supporting you and the further education and higher education sectors by providing practical resources and expertise to help you meet the deadlines. Read more about the new regulations and how we can support you.

As a next step, we are also helping members to learn from each other’s experiences of implementing the legislation in their own organisations.
