Access audits

What is an access audit?

We offer several different kinds of audits. These include:

• Walk and talk audits: We’ll help you walk in the tracks of a disabled person. One of our auditors will walk with you around your building. The auditor will help you understand the access issues that might prevent disabled people from using your facility. We won’t compile a formal report for this type of audit but will note the key points in a short letter.
• Access guidance: This will help you target key issues and assess your building against certain access criteria contained on a tick list. We report against the tick list, giving key comments and general advice on access issues.
• Audits of external environments: We carry out audits of town centres, countryside paths, cemeteries, building access routes etc. The nature of the report is dependent on the nature of the commission.
