Accessibility

We want this store to work for everyone who wants to buy from it, including people using a screen reader, a keyboard only, magnification, or a phone in bright sunlight on a bad connection.

What is built in

• Semantic HTML. Real headings, real lists, real buttons and real links, so a screen reader can navigate the page structure.
• Every interactive control is reachable and operable by keyboard, and the focus ring is never removed.
• A skip link to the main content is the first thing in the tab order.
• Alt text on every product image is the full product title.
• Form fields all have visible labels tied to the input, not placeholder text pretending to be a label.
• Text reflows to 320px wide without horizontal scrolling. Wide tables scroll inside their own box, never the page.
• Animation respects the reduced motion setting in your operating system. The brand strip on the homepage stops moving if you have that on.
• The site works with JavaScript switched off. You can browse, search, add to the cart and reach checkout.

What is not done yet

An honest list is more use than a compliance badge.

• This site has not had a formal WCAG 2.2 audit. We are targeting level AA and we are not claiming to have hit it.
• Product descriptions come from the brands. Some of that supplied markup is poor and we have not rewritten all of it.
• Some product photography carries text inside the image that is not repeated in the alt text.
• Colour contrast has been checked by eye against the design tokens, not measured across every state.

Tell us about a barrier

If something on this site stopped you doing what you came to do, send us a message with the page and what happened. We treat that as a bug, not feedback, and we will tell you what we did about it.
