I follow "inclusive design guidelines" which is about design for all,
including those with motor and cognitive impairments.

However, at the moment I am trying to find out something specific - if
software designed by Java is accessible to a screen reader user. I have had
quite allot of feedback already in this area and so far the feedback seems
to be that the user needs to install access bridge and the other access
utilities in order to access the software.

I will pass on your comments to the appropriate person within RNIB who
writes the additional text at the end of the email.
