I have an older Step-by-Step guide forgetting Chirp installed on Centos6 which might give you some reminders of what you're going to need to get installed on Ubuntu 20.04 (if at all possible):

I know nothing about accessibility.
Others have reported that other softwares in flatpak format are accessible so I 
suggest you build it from source. You will still need QT and
python2.

Nigel,

Is CHIRP from the repository accessible?

CHIRP installed with Flatpak is inaccessible because Flatpak is inaccessible.

Certainly for blind users, an old version of CHIRP is much better than the 
inaccessible flatpak version.

However there is a source tarball here:

https://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/LATEST/chirp-daily-20220602.tar.gz

I'll help any blind person install the CHIRP source tar ball.

Nigel, that should be accessible, right?

Don't install Chirp from the repositories. It's too old.
Go to https://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/LATEST/ and download and install the flatpak version.
  You might have to first "sudo apt install flatpak" if you don't already have 
it.

Chirp is installed via apt, as using snap or flat pack renders it inaccessible 
with Orca.

help would be greatly appreciated.
