In the UK where 20% of the population is affected by disabilities, it is imperative that business owners take significant strides towards inclusivity. Each individual, regardless of their abilities, deserves to experience the joy, comfort, and freedom to surf the web and visit a business website without the restrictions they currently experience.
In today’s interconnected world, ensuring inclusivity is not limited to the physical realm but extends to the digital landscape as well. Embracing inclusivity both online and offline is not just a moral imperative but also a legal requirement under the Equalities Act 2010.
By embracing inclusivity, not only does the business open its doors to a significant portion of the population, but it also taps into an immense potential for business growth and innovation.
