AccessMend

Your website is turning away one customer in four.

Roughly 24% of UK adults have a disability. Most small business sites fail them on the same six things. I find those failures and fix them, for a fixed price, in days.

This opens an email to me with your address in it. You get a plain-English list of what's wrong within two working days. No obligation.

Six faults cause 96% of failures

The 2026 WebAIM survey of a million home pages found the same six errors year after year. Every one of them is fixable without a redesign.

Text you can't read

Grey-on-white looks tasteful to a designer and invisible to anyone over fifty.

Pictures with no description

A screen reader says "image" and moves on. Your opening hours in a photo? Gone.

Form boxes with no label

The box says nothing. Is it name, email, or card number? Keyboard users guess.

Empty links

An icon with no text. Screen readers announce "link, link, link". Nobody clicks.

Buttons with no name

Same problem, higher stakes: it's usually the one that says "Book now".

Targets too small to tap

New in WCAG 2.2: anything you tap needs to be at least 24 pixels. Most icon links aren't.

See the work before you pay for it

This is what a (usually £1500) £5 fix list looks like, run on a demo dental practice site with the usual faults. Every real report follows the same format: each fault, who it blocks, the standard it breaks, and the exact code change.

One real fix, in full

The booking button on the demo site is an icon with no text. A screen reader announces "button" and nothing else. Voice-control users can't say "click Book" because there's nothing to click by name.

Before
<button onclick="book()">
  <img src="calendar-icon.png">
</button>
After
<button onclick="book()" aria-label="Book an appointment">
  <img src="calendar-icon.png" alt="">
</button>

Two attributes. Two minutes. The button now reads as "Book an appointment, button" and the icon is correctly marked as decorative.

How I test

Three passes, because each catches what the others miss. Automated (axe-core, the engine inside Chrome's Lighthouse) finds the mechanical faults: missing labels, bad contrast, no alt text. Keyboard only: I unplug the mouse and try to do everything you'd want a customer to do. Screen reader (NVDA): I listen to the page the way a blind visitor would. Automated tools alone catch roughly a third of real problems; the other two passes are where the rest come from.

Fixed prices, no retainers you didn't ask for

Launch pricing for my first five clients while I build a public case-study list. Pay securely by card and enter your website address at checkout; you’ll get an invoice by email straight away. Need to pay by bank transfer instead? Email hello@accessmend.co.uk and I'll send one over.

Fix list

£5 (usually £350)

  • Automated scan plus a manual keyboard and screen-reader pass
  • Every issue ranked by who it blocks and how long it takes to fix
  • Plain-English PDF your developer can work from
  • Delivered within 2 working days

Audit and repair

£20 (usually £1,800)

  • Everything in the fix list
  • I make the fixes on your site, or hand your developer tested code
  • Re-test with a screen reader after
  • Public accessibility statement written for you
  • Sites up to 15 pages; 1–2 weeks

Keep it fixed

£9/month

  • Quarterly re-check of every page
  • New issues fixed as they appear
  • Statement kept up to date
  • Cancel any time

What happens after you pay

  • I email you within one working day for your website address and, for repairs, how I'll access the site (a staging login, CMS access, or I send your developer the code).
  • Fix lists arrive within two working days. Repairs take one to two weeks depending on the site.
  • If I can't access or fix your site for any reason, you get a full refund. No forms, no fuss.
  • Any fix that fails re-testing, I redo free.
  • Prefer to pay on delivery or by bank transfer? Email me and we'll do it that way.

How it works

  1. Send me your address. Use the box at the top or email hello@accessmend.co.uk.
  2. Get the free check. Within two working days you'll have a short list of what's broken and what it would cost to fix. If it's clean, I'll tell you that too.
  3. Pick a package. Fix list if you have a developer; audit and repair if you'd rather I handled it.
  4. I fix, then I test. Automated tools catch about a third of real problems. The rest I find with a keyboard and a screen reader, the way your customers will.
  5. You publish a statement. I write it. It's what procurement teams and solicitors look for.

Who you're dealing with

Daniel Nkosi

Daniel Nkosi. I'm a university student in Manchester and I run AccessMend alongside my degree. I build with HTML, CSS, JavaScript and Python, and I test with the same tools the big agencies use: axe-core, WAVE, Lighthouse and the NVDA screen reader.

I don't sell overlay widgets or "one-click compliance" plugins; they don't work and regulators know it. I fix the actual code, then I prove it with a re-test you can see.

Why this matters now

The European Accessibility Act has been enforceable since June 2025 and the first court orders against retailers landed in 2026. In the UK the Equality Act already applies to websites, and larger clients increasingly ask suppliers for an accessibility statement before they'll sign. But most people fix their site for a simpler reason: a customer told them the booking form didn't work on their phone.
