Accessibility Statement

Semantic HTML

A single h1 per page with a logical, unskipped heading hierarchy below it, plus landmark elements (header, nav, main, footer) throughout.

Alt text

All images have descriptive alt attributes.

Keyboard navigation

All interactive elements (links, buttons) are reachable via keyboard Tab navigation, including a "Skip to content" link on every page and a focus-trapped, Escape-to-close mobile menu.

Focus styles

A visible, brand-coloured focus outline is shown on every interactive element — important since the custom cursor hides the native pointer.

Reduced motion

Scroll-reveal animations, the marker-circle draw-on, the CTA background zoom, and the hero/footer scroll-scale effects all check the prefers-reduced-motion system setting and turn themselves off when it is set.

Pausable video

The process video in "Our Process" ships with a visible play/pause control and does not autoplay at all for visitors who prefer reduced motion.

Icons

All icons are inline SVG with aria-hidden set; every icon-only button (menu, close, scroll-to-top) has its own aria-label.

Responsive design

The site adapts fully across mobile, tablet, and desktop screen sizes.

Colour contrast

Our gold accent colour (#B8925A) is used decoratively, never as the sole means of conveying information.

Language

The page language is declared: <html lang="en">.

Page title

A descriptive, unique page title is set in metadata.

Text resizing

Text can be resized up to 200% in browser settings without loss of core content.

Custom cursor

Replaces the default cursor on desktop. Users who rely on the native OS cursor can disable it via browser settings.

Video captions

The process video in "Our Process" is a muted, non-dialogue walkthrough and does not currently ship with captions.

Screen reader testing

Formal testing with screen readers (NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver) is planned but not yet complete.
