Day Zero A11y

Accessibility starts on Day Zero.

Helping designers, content creators, and project managers build accessibility into their thinking from the very beginning.

Accessibility is not a checklist. It's a mindset.

At Day Zero A11y, I help teams understand accessibility before the design is approved, before content is published, and before development begins. The earlier accessibility is considered, the easier and more effective it becomes.

Accessibility Strategy

Support for organisations wanting to embed accessibility into everyday workflows and decision-making.

Why Day Zero?

Many organisations think about accessibility too late.

By the time accessibility issues are discovered, designs are complete, content is published, and budgets are spent.

Day Zero A11y helps teams shift accessibility left, making inclusive thinking a natural part of how products, content, and services are created.

My Approach

  • Practical, not overwhelming

  • Focused on mindset before compliance

  • Designed for early project stages

  • Clear advice for non-specialists

  • Accessibility that supports better experiences for everyone
