How do I know if my project is the right fit? ↓What an accessibility design review actually is
The cheapest accessibility issue to fix is the one you never build.
An Accessibility Design Review evaluates concepts, wireframes, prototypes or completed designs before development begins.
Rather than waiting for accessibility issues to appear in production, the engagement identifies barriers while changes remain quick and inexpensive to make.
You’ll leave with practical recommendations that help your team build accessibility into the product from the beginning.
Common problems
Accessibility is considered too late
Issues are being discovered after decisions have already become expensive to change.
Design decisions create unnecessary barriers
Layouts, interactions or content choices may make the product harder to use.
Teams are unsure whether designs are accessible
You need confidence before designs move into development.
You’re preparing for development
Review accessibility while changes are still quick and inexpensive to make.
Why work with me
Accessibility should be designed in, not added later.
Many accessibility problems begin during design rather than development.
I combine accessibility, UX and product thinking to identify issues early, helping organisations reduce rework and deliver more inclusive digital products.
You’ll leave with greater confidence before development begins.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kinds of designs is this designed for?
Every Accessibility Design Review focuses on one product, feature or design system. Typical examples include: • High-fidelity designs. • Interactive prototypes. • Design systems. • SaaS products. • Mobile applications. Larger or more complex projects are usually better suited to a bespoke engagement.
Is this different from an Accessibility Review?
Yes. An Accessibility Review evaluates an existing product. An Accessibility Design Review evaluates designs before development begins.
Do developers need to be involved?
No. The engagement is intended to identify accessibility issues before development starts, although development teams often benefit from the recommendations.
What happens after the review?
You’ll receive practical recommendations explaining which accessibility improvements should be made before development begins.
Where are you based?
I’m based in Manchester, UK and work with organisations across the UK, Europe and internationally. Most projects are delivered remotely, although I’m happy to travel for workshops, stakeholder sessions and key project milestones where required.
Do you work remotely?
Yes. Most projects are delivered remotely using Microsoft Teams, Google Meet or Zoom. Working remotely allows me to support organisations across the UK and internationally while remaining flexible and cost-effective.
Will I work directly with you?
Yes. Every project is delivered by me. If additional specialist support is ever needed, I’ll discuss it with you first, but you’ll always work directly with me throughout the project.
Can you work alongside our existing team?
Absolutely. Many clients already have designers, researchers, developers or product managers in place. I can provide additional capacity, independent advice or senior support without disrupting the way your team already works.
Do you only work with large organisations?
No. I’ve worked with startups, SMEs, agencies, charities, public sector organisations and global enterprises. Every engagement is tailored to the size, complexity and goals of the organisation.
What if my project doesn’t fit one of your fixed engagements?
The fixed engagements are designed around the most common types of engagement. If your project requires something different, I’ll create a bespoke proposal based on your goals, timescales and scope.
How quickly can you start?
Availability varies throughout the year, but many fixed engagements can begin within one to two weeks. If you have an urgent requirement, let me know and I’ll always do my best to accommodate it.
Do you sign NDAs and work with confidential information?
Yes. Much of my work has involved commercially sensitive products, government services and confidential research. I’m happy to sign NDAs and regularly work with organisations where confidentiality is essential.
