Accessibility Statement for Gardeners Dulwich
Gardeners Dulwich is committed to making our website and online information accessible to as many people as possible. We want visitors in Dulwich and the surrounding area to be able to find gardening services, understand our content, and contact us without unnecessary barriers. Our aim is to provide a clear, usable experience for everyone, including people who use assistive technologies or navigate the web in different ways.
Our Accessibility Standard
We aim to meet the requirements of WCAG 2.1 AA, which is a widely recognised standard for digital accessibility. This means we work to make content readable, pages understandable, and website features usable for people with a range of access needs. We review our content with accessibility in mind and continue to improve the experience over time.
Screen Reader Support
Our website is designed to work with common screen readers and other assistive technologies. We use clear page structure, descriptive headings, and meaningful text so users can move through content more easily. Where possible, we ensure that important information is presented in a way that can be interpreted correctly by screen-reading software. We also aim to avoid content that depends only on visual cues.
Keyboard Navigation
Our site is intended to be usable with a keyboard alone, without requiring a mouse or touch input. This includes navigating through menus, forms, and interactive elements using the Tab, Shift plus Tab, Enter, and arrow keys where appropriate. We work to keep focus states visible so users can see where they are on the page while moving through content by keyboard.
Accessible Content in the Dulwich Area
We understand that people looking for gardeners in Dulwich may be using different devices, browsing conditions, and accessibility tools. For that reason, we aim to keep our content simple, practical, and easy to follow. We also try to use plain language so visitors can quickly understand our services, whether they are seeking routine garden maintenance, seasonal work, or help with a larger outdoor project.
Ongoing Improvements
Accessibility is an ongoing process. While we work to maintain a high standard, some content or features may not yet fully meet every accessibility requirement. When issues are identified, we aim to address them as quickly as reasonably possible. We welcome feedback because it helps us improve the experience for everyone using our website.
