The PAS is definitely a very good place to start (and a free copy can be
downloaded here
http://www.drc-gb.org/library/website_accessibility_guidance/pas_78.aspx
). It gives good guidance on planning and implementing accessibility in
websites.

I noticed that your friend is based in local Government so they may want
to look at the UK Government Guidelines as well

We also publish our RNIB See it Right Accessible Website Guidelines in
the Web Access Centre a http://www.rnib.org.uk/wac in the downloads
page.
