Accessibility Statement
In November 2022 I was extremely proud to have completed the Wix Accessibility course, and become an Accessibility Specialist.
​
The World Health Organization says that over one billion people worldwide have a disability. Disability categories include:
​
VISUAL- such as blindness or heavy/partial sightedness.
AUDITORY – such as profound deafness or hard of hearing.
MOTOR – conditions causing anything from minor limited motor function to full paralysis.
COGNITIVE – such as ADHD, dyslexia and autistic spectrum disorder.
​
Around 25% of the global population may have temporary and situational limitations at any given time, so we want to make sure that websites are accessible to all.
​
Wix has designed their features to be accessibility compliant by aligning all their products with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), published by the Web Accessibility Initiative.
​
Every single country/region/state has different laws on accessibility, so it is impossible to guarantee accessibility when it comes to websites. If you really want to be legally compliant you can hire a professional, legally-qualified accessibility advisor who understands your local laws.
​
However, with my training through Wix, I am thrilled to be able to offer a higher level of knowledge on accessibility when building and managing websites for my clients.
