Join forward-thinking businesses, charities and non-profits building a more inclusive web.
The Accessibility Gap

1 in 5 of Your Visitors Can't Use Most Websites.

That's 14 million people in the UK — customers, donors, and supporters you're unintentionally excluding. Meanwhile, the £274 billion Purple Pound remains untapped by businesses with inaccessible digital experiences.

Under the Equality Act 2010, your website is legally required to be accessible.

Yet 96% of homepages still fail basic compliance checks.

The question isn't whether you should fix this. It's whether you'll do it before a complaint forces your hand — or before a competitor captures the audience you're missing.

Accessibility isn't an add-on we offer.
It's the foundation of every site we build.

Our Approach

Accessibility Built In From Day One. Not Bolted On at the End.

Most agencies treat accessibility as a checklist item at the end of a project. By then, it's expensive to fix and easy to get wrong. We design for inclusion from the first wireframe, which means fewer revisions, lower costs, and a website that works beautifully for everyone.

Inclusive Blueprinting

We map user journeys for all abilities. Your sitemap and navigation are structured for keyboard users and screen readers — not just mouse clicks.

Universal Design

High-contrast, readable interfaces that look modern while supporting users with low vision, dyslexia, and cognitive differences. Beautiful and usable aren't trade-offs.

Semantic Development

Clean, semantic HTML that Google loves and assistive technology understands perfectly. We validate WCAG 2.2 AA compliance with real users before launch.

Frequently Asked Questions

We build accessibility in from the start—not as an afterthought. Most agencies design a 'beautiful' site first, then try to retrofit accessibility features later (often unsuccessfully).

We integrate inclusive design principles from the initial sitemap and wireframes, through visual design, to final code. This approach is faster, cheaper, and results in genuinely usable websites—not sites that technically 'pass' but frustrate real users.

It means your website meets the internationally recognised standard for digital accessibility—the same standard required by UK law for public sector bodies.

Practically, it means: users can navigate entirely by keyboard, screen reader users can understand all content, colours have sufficient contrast for low-vision users, videos have captions, forms are properly labelled, and much more. We test against all 50+ WCAG 2.2 AA criteria before launch.

Absolutely not! Accessible design isn't about stripping away creativity — it's about making smart choices that work for everyone. High colour contrast can be bold and striking. Clear typography is modern and professional. Logical navigation improves the experience for all users, not just people with disabilities.

Yes. Every website package includes a professionally drafted accessibility statement that accurately reflects your site's compliance status. This isn't a generic template — it's a verified declaration that demonstrates your commitment to inclusion and protects you under UK law.

The Foundation (from £2,250) is ideal for small charities, CICs, and sole traders who need a professional, compliant online presence — typically 5-7 core pages.

Impact & Growth (from £5,500) suits established organisations with active fundraising, events, or content strategies — up to 12 pages with donations, newsletters, and a news section (we can add more pages if required.)

Flagship (from £9,500) is for more complex requirements: e-commerce, member portals, CRM integration, or high-governance environments.

Yes. We typically structure projects as: 40% deposit to begin, 40% at design sign-off, and 20% at launch. For larger projects, we can discuss monthly payment plans.

We can also format quotes specifically for grant applications if you're seeking funding for your website project — just ask.

We primarily build on WordPress (for maximum flexibility and ownership) and Webflow (for rapid deployment and easy client editing).

Both platforms can be made fully accessible when built correctly. We'll recommend the best fit based on your needs, technical comfort level, and long-term plans.

You always own your website and content.

This depends on project requirements. The Foundation typically takes 2-6 weeks from kick-off to launch. Impact & Growth takes 6-10 weeks. Flagship projects take 10-16 weeks depending on complexity.

We provide a detailed timeline during your discovery call.

Absolutely — that's essential. Every package includes recorded video training showing you how to add news posts, update text, swap images, and manage basic content without risking accessibility compliance.

We also provide written documentation. For more complex changes, we're available for ongoing support.

We don't disappear. Every website includes 30 days of post-launch support to handle any teething issues. Beyond that, we offer optional maintenance packages covering accessibility, security updates, backups, and content support.

We also recommend deeper accessibility audits annually to ensure new content maintains compliance and your Accessibilty Statement is accurate — this can be bundled with our Ongoing Monitoring audit package.

Yes — though it depends on your current platform and the extent of issues. Sometimes a 'remediation' approach (fixing specific barriers) is cost-effective; sometimes a rebuild is more practical.

We'll assess your current site, provide an honest recommendation, and quote accordingly. Our Accessibility Audit is a good starting point to understand the scope of work needed.

Whilst our expertise is in UK accessibility law (Equality Act 2010, Public Sector Bodies Regulations 2018), WCAG is an international standard — if you're an organisation with international reach, or want to comply with regulations like the European Accessibility Act or ADA, we can absolutely help. Contact us to discuss your specific situation.

Accessible Pixels was founded specifically to serve the social enterprise and charity sector. Our founder has worked with organisations including Leeds City Council, Health Data Research UK, the Consumer Data Research Centre, and Which?. We understand the funding constraints, governance requirements, and stakeholder reporting needs unique to the third sector.

We build in structured feedback points throughout the design process — you're never presented with a 'surprise' final product. Each stage (wireframes, visual design, development) includes revisions based on your input. If we're genuinely not aligned after good-faith collaboration, we'll discuss options honestly. Our goal is a website you're proud of, not one you reluctantly accept.
