What web accessibility is
Web accessibility means that people with disabilities can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with websites effectively. An accessible site enables all visitors—including those using assistive technologies such as screen readers, voice recognition software, or alternative input devices—to browse and use the site with the same ease and enjoyment as anyone else. This is achieved by designing and developing the website to work across different devices, browsers, and technologies, and by following recognised accessibility standards and best practices.
