What are we doing about accessibility?

An interesting audio interview and transcript about how the Government Digital Service is improving accessibility.

This serves as a reminder of how important accessibility is, and also how it improves the website for all users.

Without a doubt, I would say that the biggest thing we’ve done to improve accessibility across the government with GOV.UK is change how we write. Like, just that one thing has made more of a difference to people, like being able to actually understand what we’re trying to communicate. Everything else that we’ve done is great on top of that, but we couldn’t have done it without having a fantastic content team, like, changed the perception of how government talks to its citizens.
