Accessibility and me: Robert Martin
Robert Martin works for HMRC’s Individuals and Small Business Compliance directorate. He was diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome (AS) at 55 years old. We talk to him to find out more about living with AS and what accessibility means to him.

We regularly write about accessibility not just on this blog, but on blogs across GDS and across government. Here's a selection of some recent accessibility blog posts we've published.
