About Bridge

The web should bend to people — not the other way round

Brains, ears, eyes and hands work in many different ways, yet most of the web was built for just one of them. The World Health Organization estimates that about one in six people experience significant disability, and many more meet barriers online every day. Bridge is a way across.

How Bridge talks

  1. Describe the barrier, not the person.

    “Small grey text is hard to read” — not “visually impaired users”. The web is what’s broken. You’re fine.

  2. No diagnosis needed.

    Lots of people know how their brain works without a formal label. We never ask for proof, and we never diagnose.

  3. Your words first.

    If you say Deaf, autistic or ADHD, so do we. If you don’t use a label, we won’t introduce one.

  4. Plain, warm, specific.

    Short sentences. No pity, no “inspiring”, no “suffers from”. Just what helps.

  5. Offer, don’t prescribe.

    “You could try…” — and the choice stays yours.
