Accessibility

Everyone should be able to use this site.

We build for older adults and the people who love them. If this website is hard to read or hard to use, we have not done our job.

Having trouble? Call us.

You never have to use this website to become a member. Call us and a real person will take your details, answer your questions, and set everything up for you.

What we have tested

The rebuilt pages of this site are built against WCAG 2.1 Level AA. The following has been checked on those pages:

  • Text and background colours meet a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1.
  • Every page can be operated with a keyboard alone, and whatever you are on is clearly outlined.
  • A "Skip to main content" link is the first thing a keyboard or screen reader user reaches.
  • Headings, landmarks and lists are marked up properly, so a screen reader announces the page in a sensible order.
  • Images that carry meaning have text alternatives. Decorative icons are hidden from screen readers rather than read out.
  • Every form field has a visible label attached to it.
  • Pages reflow without sideways scrolling down to a 320 pixel wide screen, and at 200% zoom.
  • Animation and smooth scrolling switch off automatically if your device asks for reduced motion.

Automated testing cannot catch everything, and a page can pass every check above and still be awkward to use. If something does not work for you, we would rather hear about it.

What is not done yet

  • Our booking calendars come from Calendly and our forms from HubSpot. We have set both up as accessibly as their options allow, but we do not control their code. If either gets in your way, call us and we will complete it with you over the phone.
  • Older parts of the site have not been rebuilt yet, and have not been tested to the same standard.
  • Articles published before the rebuild have not been re-checked, so some may not meet everything listed above.

Tell us what we missed

If you run into a barrier on this site, tell us the page you were on and what happened. It is the fastest way for us to fix it.
