Accessibility Statement

1. Our Commitment

We believe that good digital experiences should be available to all users regardless of disability, device, or circumstance. As a digital consultancy, accessibility is not an afterthought — it is a core part of how we approach our own work as well as the work we do for clients.

2. What We Have Done

We have taken the following steps to improve accessibility on this website:

• Semantic HTML5 elements used throughout (header, main, footer, nav, section, article)
• All images include descriptive alt attributes, or aria-hidden="true" for decorative images
• Keyboard navigation is fully supported — all interactive elements are reachable and operable via keyboard
• A visible "Skip to main content" link is provided for keyboard and screen reader users
• Colour contrast ratios meet or exceed WCAG 2.1 AA requirements
• Focus indicators are clearly visible on all interactive elements
• All animations and transitions respect the prefers-reduced-motion media query
• Form fields include visible labels and appropriate name attributes
• ARIA landmark roles and labels are used where appropriate
• The page language is declared (lang="en")
• Duplicate carousel items are hidden from assistive technology (aria-hidden, tabindex="-1")

3. Conformance Status

The following table summarises our current conformance with WCAG 2.1 AA criteria across the main areas of the website:

Criterion	Status	Notes

4. Known Limitations

We are aware of the following areas that are not yet fully compliant and are actively working to address them:

• Inline form error messages: Currently, form validation errors are not communicated inline to screen readers. We intend to add ARIA live region announcements for form errors in a future update.
• Third-party CMS admin panel: The /admin/ section is powered by Decap CMS, a third-party tool. We do not have direct control over its accessibility but are monitoring it.
