Accessibility statement
We design this website to meet WCAG 2.2 AA, the accepted standard for accessible websites — including clear focus indicators, reduced-motion support, and 44px minimum touch targets throughout. This isn’t a legal requirement for a private practice, but we publish it because our patients include exactly the people most affected if we get it wrong.
Our commitment
We want everyone who visits this website — including patients with visual, hearing, motor or cognitive disabilities — to be able to find our practices, understand our treatments, and get in touch. We design and build to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA, the standard generally accepted as discharging the anticipatory duty to make reasonable adjustments under the Equality Act 2010.
What we’ve built in
- A visible focus indicator on every interactive element, so the site is usable by keyboard alone, not just by mouse or touch.
- Every button, link and form control sized to at least 44×44px, so they’re easier to use for anyone with limited dexterity.
- Motion that respects your device’s reduced-motion setting — if you’ve asked your system to limit animation, this site honours that, and all content remains fully readable with animation switched off.
- Colour choices checked for contrast against the background they appear on, and information is never conveyed by colour alone.
- Real, descriptive alt text on meaningful images, and a logical heading structure on every page.
Known limitations
This site is newly built and we’re continuing to test it. A fuller accessibility audit and any known issues will be published here.
