Accessibility statement

I want everyone to be able to use this site, including people who use screen readers, keyboards or larger text.

The standard I build to

This site is built to WCAG 2.2 AA. WCAG is the international set of guidelines for making websites usable by people with a disability, and AA is the level most organisations aim for. I build client sites to the same level.

What that means on this site

  • You can use everything with a keyboard alone, and you can always see where you are on the page.
  • A "Skip to content" link lets you jump past the menu.
  • Text and buttons have enough contrast against their background to read easily.
  • The page still works when you zoom in or make the text larger, and on small phone screens.
  • Headings and page regions are marked up so screen readers can move around the page.
  • Every form field has a visible label, and any error is written out in words next to the field it belongs to.
  • The example phone at the top of the home page changes on its own, but there's a button to pause it. If you've asked your device to reduce motion, it starts paused.
  • Nothing else moves unless you click or tap it.

How I check it

Before every update goes live, an automated test (axe) checks each page on a phone-sized and a desktop-sized screen, and a second test checks the contrast of every colour pairing. The update can't go live if either test fails.

Automated tests only catch some problems, so I also check by hand with a keyboard and with VoiceOver, the screen reader built into Mac and iPhone. Last checked by hand: November 2026.

Parts I don't control

  • "Book a free call" opens a booking page run by Google Calendar. I don't control how that page is built.
  • If JavaScript is turned off in your browser, sending the contact form takes you to a confirmation page run by Formspree.

If either of those gets in your way, email me and I'll arrange a time or reply to you directly.

Tell me about a problem
