What we do

Welcome

With an estimated population of 1.85 billion, people with disabilities together with their friends and family have a global spending power of $13. Unlocking this potential will have a transformative effect on economic growth for both public and private services.  Can people with disabilities access your business?

People with disabilities spend their money on an inclusive customer experience and accessible products and services. Businesses and brands seeking to maximize returns are focusing on disability inclusion as a core value and see it as an investment rather than a cost.

Our inclusive solutions supports revenue growth, increases prospective talent pool, improve the sustainability of businesses and mitigates the risk of litigation.  This allows businesses to get beyond regulatory requirements and focus on what matters most to their customers and employees, having an accessible, equitable, inclusive and sustainable business.

Universal Access confidently leads your business through every step of your Disability Inclusion journey, embedding systematic change and transforming your business to be inclusive for employees and customers.
