Building the Most Accessible BankInclusive Design and Accessibility at Barclays
21 May 2014Kathryn Townsend
By ensuring our products and services are
inclusive for all our customers, no
matter their needs, we will achieve the goal of being The Most Accessible
BankCompany confidential
8 | CN Strategy and Planning | May 2012
If we stop thinking about ‘Disability’ and instead think ‘Accessibility’; we’ll see barriers everywhere
9 | Barclays presentation title | 30 January 2012
In numbers
10 | Barclays presentation title | 30 January 2012
• ‘Purple Pound’ (disabled spending power) estimated £80 billion
• Tesco – saw £13m increase in annual review via online home grocery service following £35k investment in accessible website
Financial Context
•Over 10 million people with a limiting long term illness, impairment or disability in Great Britain
•The prevalence of disability rises with age, with almost 1 in 2 people over state-pension age being disabled.
External Context
A landmark ruling against RBS in 2009 saw a disabled man win his fight for access to his local branch in a decision that sent a clear warning to businesses that fail to take seriously their responsibilities as service providers under the Equality Act and changed case law.
Regulatory Context
1 in 6 UK Residents is over 65. Almost 1 in 2 over 65’s have a disability of some form
Over 65’s are our most profitable customer segment
There are perception issues…
11 | Barclays presentation title | 30 January 2012
“The man at my bank was quite rude when I asked for a credit card – he said:
‘Disabled people don’t work – you won’t be
able to have one’
I felt terrible and angry – I don’t use branch banking any more – I’ve lost my confidence”
2010 (not a Barclays branch)
And practical issues…
12 | Barclays presentation title | 30 January 2012
“I wish my bank did not rely on using the phone so much. I’d like to be able to use text
and emails more, or have a more deaf friendly secure system so that I can access my account
in the same way as other people”
Sally – deaf
So what can we do?
Company confidential
14 | Accessibility at Barclays | 18 March 2014
Customers and clientsIt’s about ensuring that we do not deny access to any of our products or services because of someone’s disability or impairment.
Sometimes this is about introducing new technology to open up communication channels…
Such as Sign Video for British Sign Language
(BSL) users
Or ‘high vis’ debit cards for people with visual impairments and/or
dyslexia
Company confidential
15 | Accessibility at Barclays | 18 March 2014
Customers and clients…But sometimes it’s about thinking differently about the services we already have, and finding ways to break down historical barriers…
Such as Talking ATMs for blind people, developed with the RNIB
For you, it’s about building Inclusive Design in from Day 1
The later change is introduced into a design the more costly that change is to delivery

16 | IIBA Accessibility Event | May 2014
Inclusive Project Design: What is it?
When working on change projects which will impact people (customers, colleagues or the general public), it is imperative to consider the impact upon the end user, their needs and document the decisions made. This will ensure that we:
Consider the impact of projects on all user groups such as people with different physical and mental abilities, people different ages and/or cultural backgrounds
Leverage different view points to give us a competitor advantage
Document our approach so we have consistent records to mitigate reputational and financial risk
Meet local international/country standards and legislation such as the Equality Act 2010 in the UK, W3C internet standards
Company confidential
17 | Inclusive Design Standard – D&I | December 2012
Accessibility Standards provide guidance & create consistency – but they need to be applied universally
18 | Barclays presentation title | 30 January 2012
Draw information from the people who are closest to the issues
Company confidential
19 | Accessibility at Barclays | 18 March 2014
Don’t underestimate the potential every project has to be a little more inclusive
There are more than
10 million
people in the UK
with some form of hearing

Over to Chris McCausland to tell us, in his words, about Inclusive Design…
