  • The internet plays an increasingly important part in our daily lives, yet for some of those that could benefit from it the most, it can still be a difficult and frustrating place to get around.

    It is estimated that as many as 90% of websites present barriers to the 19 million people in the UK alone with visual impairments, mobility issues, learning difficulties and other disabilities that can impact on web usage.

    Since being launched in 2004, net-guide has been helping thousands of users to find the information that they need in a way that is accessible to them. In 2007 alone, more than 70,000 people used net-guide more than 250,000 times to search the web.

    Nominated by CR McCartney, 08 April 2008
