Accessibility Statement

This accessibility statement applies to the Attwell Farm Park website at attwellfarmpark.co.uk.

This website is run by Attwell Farm Park Ltd. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. For example, that means you should be able to:

  • Navigate the website using a keyboard

  • Navigate the website using a screen reader

  • Skip directly to the main content on every page

  • Use the website with your browser zoomed in to 200%

  • Use your browser's built-in translation tools to read the website in your preferred language

We have also made the website text as simple as possible to understand.

AbilityNet has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.

How accessible this website is

We are actively working to make this website as accessible as possible. Following a full audit against WCAG 2.2 AA, we identified 18 areas for improvement. We have resolved 17 of these. The remaining known issues are:

Images

  • Some gallery images across the site may be missing alternative text descriptions where content editors have not provided them. We are working with our content team to address this on an ongoing basis.

Language

  • The website is currently available in English only. We plan to add support for additional languages in the future.

Visual preferences

  • The website does not currently support dark mode. We do support high contrast and increased contrast preferences.

What we have done to improve accessibility

Since our audit on 15 March 2026, we have completed the following improvements:

Navigation and structure

  • Added a skip-to-content link so keyboard users can bypass the navigation on every page

  • Added correct page landmarks so screen readers can identify the main content area

  • Screen readers are now informed when a new page loads during navigation

  • Fixed the site header to use the correct landmark role for assistive technology

  • Carousels can now be navigated using the keyboard (arrow keys, Home, and End)

  • External links now announce that they open in a new window

Images and icons

  • Payment method icons (Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay, Google Pay) now have accessible text labels

  • Images without alternative text from the content management system are now treated as decorative rather than announcing meaningless placeholder text

Forms and booking

  • Checkout form fields now suggest autocomplete values for personal details (name, email, address, etc.)

  • Form validation errors are now announced to screen readers and linked to their fields

  • Error messages are now presented as alerts so assistive technology is informed immediately

Dialogs and interactive content

  • Modal dialogs now trap keyboard focus correctly, preventing interaction with content behind them

  • Modal dialogs can now be closed using the Escape key and return focus to the element that opened them

  • The cookie consent banner now traps focus within its modal and returns focus when dismissed

  • Toast notification messages (such as booking confirmations) are now announced to screen readers

Visual preferences

  • The website now respects your operating system's high contrast and increased contrast preferences, adjusting colours automatically

  • The website now works correctly with Windows High Contrast Mode (forced colours)

  • All animations and transitions across the site are now disabled when you have requested reduced motion in your operating system settings

Code quality

  • Added development-time warnings for heading hierarchy issues to prevent future regressions

  • Corrected semantic HTML throughout the footer

Remaining improvements

  • Adding support for additional languages when we expand beyond English

  • Adding dark mode support

  • Offering optional site-level preferences such as a dyslexia-friendly font, for needs not typically covered by operating system settings

  • Adding automated accessibility testing to our development pipeline to catch regressions

Our approach

We believe that visitors who use assistive technology already have their tools set up and configured to work for them. Our approach is to build our website to work seamlessly with the technology people already use — including screen readers, switch controls, voice recognition software, and operating system accessibility preferences — rather than attempting to replace or override those tools with our own.

We have chosen not to implement an accessibility overlay or toolbar widget. These tools are widely discouraged by accessibility professionals and the disabled community because they often interfere with the assistive technology people already rely on. Instead, we focus on getting the foundations right: clean, semantic code that respects your preferences and works with your tools, not against them.

Where there are genuine gaps that operating system settings do not cover — such as dyslexia-friendly fonts — we will offer simple, optional preferences directly on the site.

Technical information about this website's accessibility

Attwell Farm Park Ltd is committed to making its website accessible, in accordance with the Equality Act 2010 and the European Accessibility Act.

This website has been built with:

  • HTML5 with semantic landmarks and correct heading hierarchy

  • WAI-ARIA attributes for dynamic content, live regions, and modal dialogs

  • CSS that respects reduced motion, high contrast, and forced colour preferences

  • Focus management and keyboard trapping for all modal interfaces

  • Server-side rendering to ensure content is available before scripts load

Browsers and assistive technology tested

We have tested the website with the following combinations:

  • VoiceOver with Safari on macOS and iOS

  • NVDA with Firefox on Windows

  • TalkBack with Chrome on Android

  • Keyboard-only navigation across all major browsers

Preparation of this accessibility statement

This statement was prepared on 01 February 2026.

This statement was last reviewed on 15 March 2026.

This website was last tested on 23 March 2026. The test was carried out by an internal review using a combination of automated tools (axe-core, Lighthouse) and manual testing with screen readers and keyboard navigation. We identified 18 areas for improvement and have resolved 17 of them.

We review this statement and re-test the website on an ongoing basis as part of our development process, and formally at least once a year.
