What Does Our DDA Assessment Cover?
Our disability audit risk assessments evaluate multiple areas to ensure full accessibility across your Manchester business:
Professional Disability Access Audits in Manchester
Accessibility is an essential part of creating safe, inclusive and legally compliant environments. Poor access arrangements can affect customers, staff, tenants and visitors, while also creating reputational and legal risks for businesses.
Manchester contains a wide variety of buildings, from older converted premises and listed properties through to modern office developments, hospitality venues and healthcare environments. Each presents different accessibility considerations.
Our approach is practical and straightforward. We identify accessibility concerns clearly, explain where improvements may be required and provide sensible recommendations to help improve compliance and accessibility standards.
Who Needs a Disability Access Audit in Manchester?
Under the Equality Act 2010, businesses and service providers have legal responsibilities to make reasonable adjustments for disabled people.
If your premises are accessed by employees, customers, tenants or members of the public, accessibility should be properly considered and reviewed.
We regularly provide Disability Access Audits in Manchester for:
- Business owners and employers
- Commercial property owners
- Landlords and property managers
- Healthcare providers and dental practices
- Schools, colleges and nurseries
- Hospitality and leisure businesses
- Care and supported living providers
- Public-facing organisations and facilities
Many businesses wrongly assume accessibility only relates to wheelchair access. In reality, accessibility covers a much wider range of considerations including entrances, signage, lighting, toilet facilities, hearing assistance and safe evacuation procedures.
Common Accessibility Issues We Find in Manchester Buildings
We regularly identify avoidable accessibility issues during audits across Manchester.
Some of the most common include poor entrance access, heavy doors without assistance, inadequate signage, inaccessible toilet facilities and emergency evacuation arrangements that do not properly consider disabled users.
Older Manchester buildings can often present additional accessibility challenges due to historic layouts, level changes and restricted access areas. In many cases, businesses are unaware that accessibility barriers exist until a professional audit is carried out.

Good contact to say when they would arrive on site with information up front on what they would need to complete the risk assessments. Once received the risk assessments were easy to read and the 'to do' tasks were explained to ensure we remained compliant. Very competitively priced as well. Highly recommend.

Fantastic service - contacted last minute on Tuesday as needed some risk assessments carried out by today (Friday) for a regulatory inspection. Max arranged for an assessor to come to site this morning, first thing before the building got busy with staff and patients (we are an NHS premises). The assessor was polite, friendly, professional and helpful with useful suggestions. We were on a really tight deadline and the risk assessment reports were sent over well within the deadline, they look professional and thorough and only a couple of actions were highlighted (which we have already carried out). I have already recommended HSRA to several of my peers. Thank you

Using HSRA to do our Fire Risk Assessment was simple, we sent our address and within an hour we had a quote once their team checked the site on google maps. An Appointment was made for their surveyor to arrive and inspect the property. The Report arrived a couple of days later with a information for every part of the business including guidance on what to do in those areas that were not up to scratch. A big thanks to Max and his team at HSRA
