Free Audits for Organisations EOIs
Are you part of a Western Australian not-for-profit organisation passionate about accessibility and inclusion? If so, we are excited to invite you to partner with us in a ground-breaking project aiming to improve digital access across the state.
The Digital Access WA Project is offering free accessibility audits to not-for-profit organisations that want to help people with disability to access their website’s content and services. This initiative supports organisations by evaluating and auditing their current level of digital access, receiving customised roadmaps to understand what needs to be done to achieve their accessibility goals, and practical steps for implementation.
If you are interested in having your organisation considered for this free audit initiative, please fill out the online EOI form by 16 June 2023.
