About us
Wendy Farley and Olivia Wroth, partners in Accessibility matters, have worked together on publications since 2009. In 2018 and 2019, both experienced an increase in document accessibility work in their own design and editing businesses, and saw a need to help government departments and other businesses understand and meet government accessibility requirements when publishing online.
To meet this need, Accessibility matters was launched in May 2020.
