We also offer DDA Access Audit and Access Appraisal assessments of existing buildings to help organisations identify potential liabilities and to develop comprehensive access improvement strategies.

A DDA Access Audit is a way of assessing an existing building, or proposals for a new building, against pre-defined criteria. The pre-defined criteria are designed to measure the 'usability' of the building for a particular client group.

The results of an audit are normally prepared in a written report giving a detailed assessment against the agreed criteria together with detailed recommendations for the improvements required. These recommendations can be given priorities and can be costed if required by us.

The assessment of a building is known as a ‘DDA Access Audit'. Which, once completed will describe the liability of the organisation under the Disability Discrimination Act (1995) & (2005) and other related legislation.
