If you are interested in harnessing the power of digital media to improve your company then you've come to the right place. 

accessibility

MVG Media is committed to making our website and those we develop for our clients available to as many people as possible. Many internet users can find websites difficult to use due to the way they have been designed. MVG Media Ltd have recognised that this is an important issue and are making changes to ensure that www.mvgmedia.com and the websites we develop for clients are accessible in accordance with the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) guidelines.

Changes to improve accessibility are ongoing, but if you come across a page you find difficult to use please let us know.

why be accessible?

The DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) states that service providers must not discriminate against disabled people. A website is regarded as a service and therefore falls under this law, and as such must be made accessible to everyone.

The following statistics on the number of users who may face difficulties viewing a website show that non-accessible websites risk excluding an alarming number of potential users.

  • There are 8.6 million registered disabled people in the UK - 14% of the population (source: DRC)
  • One in 12 men and one in 200 women have some form of colour blindness - 9% of the UK population (source: Institution of Electrical Engineers)
  • Two million UK residents have a sight problem - 4% of the population (source: RNIB)
  • There are 12 million people aged 60 or over - 21% of the UK population (source: UK government)
