Research with disabled users is at the heart of our efforts to expand our research panel of individuals with disabilities to take part in usability testing, surveys, and interviews.

Who We Are Looking For

We are actively seeking individuals with various disabilities who are eager to share their insights and experiences with digital services. Whether you have mobility impairments, visual or auditory disabilities, learning difficulties, or are neurodivergent, your participation can significantly impact the future of digital accessibility.

How You Can Contribute

We invite you to take part in research sessions that may be conducted in Edinburgh, Glasgow, London or done remotely from the comfort of your own home. There are no binding commitments—you choose which projects interest you and how often you want to participate. Your feedback will be instrumental in identifying and addressing challenges faced by users with disabilities on various digital platforms.
