Accessibility Testing - feedback from clients
AMPLIFYCHANGE 
"We contacted Jim and his team to audit our old website in preparation for a brand refresh and website redesign, and to do an accessibility audit after the redesign process. From the beginning of our collaboration, Jim was thorough and clear with his findings and provided additional support and advice where we had questions or follow up. His expertise and passion for accessibility came through in each step of the process. We’re thankful to Jim and his team for their support in ensuring our new website can be accessible to all and for setting up our organisation to continue producing accessible content going forward.
