Why Public Sector Accessibility Matters

Local government websites serve diverse communities, including elderly citizens, people with disabilities, and those with limited digital literacy. Ensuring your digital services are accessible is not just a legal requirement—it's a fundamental part of serving all constituents equally and upholding the principles of inclusive democracy.

Legal Obligation
Public sector bodies must comply with accessibility regulations under Section 508, ADA Title II, and the Public Sector Bodies Accessibility Regulations 2018. Non-compliance can result in legal action and reputational damage.
Serving All Citizens
Over 15% of the population has some form of disability. Your website must serve elderly residents, those with visual or hearing impairments, cognitive disabilities, and motor limitations to fulfill your duty of care.
Transparency Requirements
Public sector organizations must publish accessibility statements, conduct regular audits, and demonstrate ongoing compliance. Universal Clarity simplifies this documentation and reporting process.

Case Study

How Springfield City Council Achieved 100% Accessibility Compliance

Population: 150,000 | Website: 500+ pages | Implementation Time: 2 weeks

Challenge: Springfield City Council faced mounting pressure to make their website accessible after receiving complaints from elderly residents and disability advocacy groups. Their legacy website had over 200 WCAG violations, and manual remediation would have cost over £50,000 and taken six months.

Solution: The council implemented Universal Clarity's accessibility widget across all 500+ pages of their website. The installation took just 30 minutes, and the widget immediately provided accessibility features for all visitors while the IT team worked on fixing underlying code issues.

Results:

"Universal Clarity transformed our approach to digital accessibility. We went from non-compliant to fully accessible in weeks, not months. Our elderly residents and citizens with disabilities can now access council services independently, which is exactly what we needed."

— Sarah Johnson, Digital Services Manager, Springfield City Council
