Accessibility

This website works for everyone

We build to WCAG 2.2 level AA, the international standard for accessible websites.

What that standard is

WCAG is the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, written by the W3C, the international body that sets the standards the web itself runs on. It is what most accessibility law points at when it needs a definition of an accessible website.

It comes in three levels, A, AA and AAA. AA is the practical standard and the one we build to. It covers what decides whether a page is usable at all: text you can read against its background, everything reachable without a mouse, type that survives being zoomed, and labels a screen reader can announce.

How we build to it

Text is set at 18px rather than the 16px most websites default to, because the most common accessibility problem on the web is type that is simply too small to read comfortably.

Body text measures 6:1 against its background. The standard asks for 4.5.

Every page works from the keyboard alone, and the focus outline stays visible so you can always see where you are. Images that carry meaning are described for a screen reader, and decoration is marked as decoration so it is skipped rather than read aloud.

And if you have asked your device to reduce motion, the page holds still.

The same goes for your website

Yours should work for everyone too. That is not an add-on we sell you, it is what we include with every website we build.
