Why would I need a Disability Access Assessment (or Audit)?
The Equality Act 2010 (EA) and the Disability Discrimination Acts (DDA) of 1995 to 2005 give people with disabilities important rights of access to everyday services. It is necessary for service providers to make reasonable adjustments to premises or to the way they provide a service in order to comply with the Acts.
What is a Disability Access Assessment/ Disability Access Audit?
A Disability Access Audit or DDA Assessment is the most effective way to establish the impact a building has on people with disabilities. It is also the best way to ensure that you are aware of all of your duties and responsibilities under the DDA. A DDA Access Audit or DDA Access Assessment takes a journey through your premises as in the way a disabled person would, e.g. someone with a mobility or sensory impairment. It reports on the accessibility of your service, identifies barriers to access, measures usability and informs and gives options on areas that could be improved. An access audit would take into account the nature of your business and your budget, whilst taking into account all aspects of the environment, property and service.
Who should carry out a Disability Access Assessment/Audit?
You can do this yourself though it may be best if carried out by a professional. Surveyors who carry out Disability Access Assessments, also known as DDA audits, have an in depth knowledge and understanding of the Disability Discrimination Act and an awareness of working with disability issues. Filling in the form above will give you a list of Surveyors who can help you. In addition to their contact details you will have details of their experience and qualifications to help you make a choice. It may be useful for you to phone some of them and speak in general terms about your requirement. Before appointing a supplier and placing an order it is wise to ensure that your chosen supplier has satisfactory qualifications, experience and insurance, to provide the level of service that you require.
