UX in the public sector is incredibly impactful, just ask Lyndsey. 💥

After upskilling with the Professional Diploma in UX Design, she started creating better experiences for citizens in her local community.

By treating citizens as users too, she's making everything from community event planning to park walk-throughs more efficient, thoughtful and intentional.

Her story is a great reminder that UX is everywhere, not just in tech companies or digital products.

Digital accessibility is no longer just best practice. It’s a legal requirement across the globe. 🚨🌏️

In April 2026, new ADA rules will require state and local governments in the U.S. to ensure their websites, apps and digital services meet recognised accessibility standards.

For organisations and digital teams, this changes how digital products must be designed, built and maintained.

In our latest blog, we break down what the new rules mean, who needs to comply and how to start preparing before the deadline.
