Our Access Audits are a vital, in-depth assessment designed to establish and enhance how accessible your building is for a broad range of users. This includes people with disabilities, but also other groups who may encounter barriers, such as older people, those with mobility issues, or sensory impairments.
Delivered by our trained access consultants—experts grounded in current accessibility legislation and best practices—our audits go beyond simple compliance checks. Our rigorous process ensures a comprehensive and holistic review of your premises:
1. Holistic Site Inspection: We conduct a thorough inspection of the building's physical features to assess their alignment with national and international accessibility standards. This focuses on identifying and mitigating structural barriers that impede access and ensuring inclusive design.
2. Policy & Procedure Review: A key part of our service is reviewing your organisation's current policies, practices, and procedures. This step is crucial for identifying any operational or administrative barriers that may inadvertently restrict access and inclusivity, ensuring all internal processes support an accessible environment.
3. Detailed Recommendations Report: Following the audit, you receive a comprehensive Recommendations Report providing clear, practical advice on necessary improvements. These recommendations are strategically phased and differentiated into:
Long-Term Changes: Advising on significant physical modifications to the building structure or site.
Short-Term Changes: Immediate, actionable adjustments to your policies and procedures that can be implemented quickly.
Our core purpose is to proactively identify and remove barriers, helping your organisation move towards full compliance and fostering an environment that is genuinely welcoming and accessible to all users.
#1
Holistic Site Inspection
We conduct a Site Inspection to assess the building's physical features against accessibility standards and a separate Policy Review to identify current policies, practices, and procedures that may inadvertently create barriers to access.
#2
Inclusivity Focus
The assessment is designed to establish how accessible a building is for a broad range of users, including people with disabilities, but also covering others who may face barriers, such as older people, those with mobility issues, or sensory impairments.
#3
Practical, Phased Recommendations
We provide a detailed Recommendations Report that issues practical advice for necessary improvements. This advice is clearly differentiated into long-term physical changes to the building and short-term, immediate changes to policies and procedures.
