About Overlay Facts

At Overlay Facts, accessibility is important in both the real and digital world. We provide information about accessibility that can make websites easier to browse for those with disabilities. With the internet being such a big part of modern life, no one should be left out.
Accessibility features for websites have been around since the 1990s. We have facts and up-to-date information about the best options, and tips on how to get the best out of digital accessibility tools.

Our Mission

We aim to help shape and build an accessible world. To do that, we know that website owners first need to understand the various digital assets available to promote accessibility and how they work.
Through education, we aim to clear up misinformation and ensure that turning a website into one that’s both beautiful and accessible isn’t a struggle.
For various disabilities, there’s a lot of support available in the “real world” that doesn’t translate online. Once you turn your attention to the digital space, there are few options to help all users browse the web equally.
Our mission is to help turn the web into a welcoming space for everyone, showcasing the technologies and accessibility options available for these people.
Internet access isn’t a privilege for the non-disabled; it’s a human right that everyone should be able to use.

Our Backstory

Our founders all come from a digital marketing background, and are directors aiming to make a difference in the digital sphere. We believe in equality, and have experience working alongside those with special needs.
In the past, we’ve worked with:

  • The elderly in various care homes and assisted living facilities
  • Children who are hard of hearing
  • Children with autism and other disabilities

During our time, we’ve become aware of some unnecessary challenges these people have in their daily life, especially when it comes to internet access. That’s why we’re so committed to accessibility.
