Meet your Consultant
My background in graphic design (BA Hons) gives me a strong foundation in visual communication, but lived experience of disability shaped my focus on accessibility and inclusive design.
I’ve seen how poor structure and inaccessible systems create real barriers. My work helps organisations remove those barriers through practical accessibility consultancy and inclusive design solutions.
Accessibility is built in from the start — ensuring digital experiences are usable, compliant and effective for a wider, more diverse audience.
If you’re looking for accessibility expertise grounded in design understanding, you’re in the right place.
Sectors I work with:
-
Supporting councils, public bodies, and funded organisations to align with WCAG 2.2, EN 301 549, and UK accessibility regulations.
-
Working with schools, colleges, SEND organisations, and training providers to ensure digital platforms are inclusive and usable for all learners.
-
Supporting small and medium-sized businesses to embed accessibility early — reducing risk while strengthening brand trust and usability.
-
Reviewing and advising on accessible apps, dashboards, and digital platforms to ensure real-world usability, including assistive technology compatibility.s.
Consultancy first, design thereafter!

My Accessible Approach
Image Description: A black-and-white workflow graphic showing an accessibility design process: free discovery call, planning, design, WCAG testing, design amendments, artwork sign-off call, and final document handover.
What do I test with?
I test all designs and conducted audits using both automated and manual methods, including:
Screen readers
Software that reads the screen out loud for blind and low-vision users (tested on Windows, Mac, iPhone, and popular browsers)
Keyboard navigation
Making sure everything works without a mouse, using just the keyboard
Colour contrast checks Ensuring text and buttons are easy to read for people with low vision or colour blindness
Zoom and resizing Testing that pages still work and look clear when text is enlarged up to 400%
Page structure and labels Checking that headings, menus, and page sections are clearly organised so that assistive technology can understand and navigate your site properly.
Curated Accessibility Outcomes
Each example highlights how practical changes can improve usability, support assistive technologies, and move organisations closer to WCAG 2.2 compliance. Through auditing first, design second.

Client Testimonials
"I wanted to advise a client on their accessibility responsibilities, as they operate in Europe and needed to be compliant. I spoke to Harrison and, after an initial discussion, the report was fantastic. He audited our client’s website and provided a detailed analysis, which enabled our client to understand the necessary actions fully. Harrison is unique compared to other experts as he lives and breathes accessibility, plus he’s an all-round great guy — nothing is too much trouble."
“I contacted Harrison, wanting to grow my marketing strategy and become more accessible. He developed some great social media content and redesigned the brand and website. He understood the needs of my clients. ”
Working with Harrison was brilliant as I am fairly new to applying accessibility to design, and I felt it was important to have his expertise on the project especially as my client had specified the file had to meet WCAG 2.1. I have learnt so much from him, he has great expertise in the field and what can and cannot be done to be compliant.
