Accessibility Statement

Accessibility at Gardeners South Tottenham

Gardeners South Tottenham is committed to providing an accessible and inclusive online experience for all visitors, including disabled users, older people, and anyone using assistive technology. We aim to make it as easy as possible for you to find information about our gardening services in South Tottenham and to contact us in a way that works for you.

Our Accessibility Commitment

We are working towards full compliance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1, level AA. These internationally recognised guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with a wide range of access needs, including visual, auditory, cognitive, and motor impairments.

Our goal is to ensure that people in South Tottenham who are looking for accessible gardeners and gardening services can use our website regardless of their technology, environment, or ability. We regularly review our content and layout to identify improvements that support inclusive access.

Supported Technologies and Browsers

This website is designed to work on recent versions of major browsers and common operating systems. We aim to support visitors using desktop, laptop, tablet, and mobile devices. We also consider the needs of users who adjust browser settings, such as changing font size, colours, or zoom level, to make content easier to read.

While we cannot guarantee perfect behaviour on every possible device or browser, we test core pages and key tasks to help ensure that people across the South Tottenham area can reliably access information about our gardening services.

Screen Reader Compatibility

The site is built with semantic HTML where possible, to help users who rely on screen readers understand the structure and meaning of each page. Headings, lists, and important page regions are marked up so that screen-reader users can navigate efficiently, find service details, and read contact information.

Images that convey relevant information are given alternative text so that users who cannot see the images still understand their purpose. Decorative images may be left without text so they do not create unnecessary noise for screen-reader users.

Keyboard Navigation

Our website is designed so that most functions can be accessed using only a keyboard. Visitors should be able to move through interactive elements in a logical order using the Tab, Shift plus Tab, Enter, and arrow keys, without needing a mouse.

We aim to ensure that the element currently in focus is always visually clear. This supports users with mobility impairments, as well as people who prefer or need to navigate by keyboard. Forms and key contact sections are set up to be reachable and usable in this way, so you can request accessible gardening services in South Tottenham without barriers.

Text, Layout, and Colour

We aim for clear, concise text and straightforward page layouts that reduce visual clutter. Colour contrast between text and background is checked to meet or exceed WCAG 2.1 AA recommendations wherever possible.

Users who need larger text can normally increase the size through their browser or device settings without losing access to content or functionality. We try to avoid using colour as the only way to present important information.

Ongoing Improvements

Accessibility is an ongoing process. As we add or update information about Gardeners South Tottenham and our services, we review new content for accessibility issues. Feedback from visitors is an important part of how we identify and prioritise accessibility improvements.
