Accessibility Statement for Cleaner Brompton

Cleaner Brompton is committed to providing an accessible and inclusive online experience for all visitors in the Cleaner Brompton area, including people with disabilities, people using assistive technologies, and those with differing preferences for how they browse the web. This statement explains the steps we take to support accessibility, the standards we aim to meet, and how you can contact us with any accessibility requests or feedback.

Our Accessibility Commitment

Our goal is to ensure that everyone can access information about Cleaner Brompton services, understand the content, and complete key tasks without barriers. We aim to design, build, and maintain our website in line with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines WCAG 2.1, targeting Level AA compliance. These guidelines are recognised internationally as a benchmark for accessible web content and cover areas such as clear structure, readable text, adaptable layouts, and support for assistive technologies.

Standards and Compatibility

The Cleaner Brompton website is developed using modern, semantic HTML wherever possible so that content is meaningful and easier for assistive technologies to interpret. We work to ensure compatibility with current versions of major web browsers and common assistive tools. This includes screen readers, screen magnifiers, and voice recognition software commonly used by residents and visitors in the Cleaner Brompton area.

Screen Reader Support

We aim to ensure that the Cleaner Brompton website can be navigated and understood with screen readers. Pages are structured with clear headings, lists, and descriptive text so that users can move through content efficiently. Where images are used to convey information, we aim to provide descriptive alternative text, enabling users who cannot see the images to understand their purpose. Form fields are labelled so that screen reader users can identify what information is required and when an action has been successful or needs correction.

Keyboard Navigation

The Cleaner Brompton website is designed to be fully usable with a keyboard alone, without needing a mouse. This includes the ability to move through menus, links, and forms using keyboard commands such as the Tab, Shift plus Tab, Enter, and arrow keys. We aim to provide a clear visual focus indicator so that keyboard users can easily see where they are on the page at all times. Interactive elements are designed to be accessible through logical tab order to support efficient navigation for all users.

Readable and Understandable Content

We aim to present information about Cleaner Brompton services in a clear, straightforward way. Content is written using plain language where possible, with short paragraphs and descriptive headings. Colour contrast is chosen to support readability for people with low vision or colour vision deficiencies. Where we use icons or graphics to represent services in the Cleaner Brompton area, they are supported by text so that meaning is not dependent on colour or imagery alone.

Ongoing Improvements

Accessibility is an ongoing process. As we update and expand information about Cleaner Brompton services, we review new content and features for accessibility. We regularly assess our website against WCAG 2.1 AA guidelines and make adjustments where issues are identified. Feedback from users in the Cleaner Brompton community is an important part of this process, and we welcome suggestions on how we can improve accessibility further.
