Accessibility Statement for Putney Removals Website

Putney Removals is committed to making our website and our removals services in the Putney area accessible and usable for everyone. We aim to provide a positive online experience for all visitors, including disabled users, older users, and people using assistive technologies. This accessibility statement explains the steps we take to support inclusive access and how you can contact us about any accessibility issues.

Our Accessibility Commitment

We are working towards full compliance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1, level AA. These guidelines set out best practices for designing and developing accessible websites. By following them, we aim to ensure that people in Putney and beyond can find information about our removals services, request quotes, and contact us without unnecessary barriers.

Our goal is to make the Putney Removals website clear, understandable, and easy to navigate, whether you are booking a local move in Putney, arranging office removals, or searching for storage solutions.

Screen Reader Support

The Putney Removals website is designed to work with modern screen readers and other assistive technologies. We use proper heading structures, clear page titles, and descriptive text to help screen reader users understand the content and move around the site efficiently. Where possible, we avoid using images of text and ensure that informative images include meaningful alternative text.

We aim to keep the language simple and direct, especially on key pages about removals services in the Putney area, so that content is easier to understand for users with different cognitive and reading needs.

Keyboard Navigation

Our site is built to be usable with a keyboard alone, without requiring a mouse or trackpad. Users should be able to move through menus, forms, and content using keyboard commands such as the Tab, Shift plus Tab, Enter, and arrow keys. Interactive elements are designed to receive clear focus states, so it is visible which element is currently selected.

This supports people who use keyboard navigation, switch devices, voice input tools, or other alternative input methods to access information about our Putney removals services.

Visual Design and Readability

We aim to provide sufficient colour contrast between text and background to meet WCAG 2.1 AA requirements, helping users with low vision or colour vision deficiencies. Text is sized for comfortable reading on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices, with layouts that adapt to different screen sizes used across the Putney area and beyond.

We minimise the use of content that flashes or moves rapidly. Where animation or movement is used, we aim to ensure it is not essential to understanding the information and, where possible, can be avoided or ignored by users who find movement distracting.

Ongoing Improvements

Accessibility is an ongoing process. We regularly review our website and content related to Putney removals services to identify areas that can be improved. When we introduce new features or pages, we aim to design them with accessibility in mind from the start, rather than as an afterthought.

We welcome feedback from users, including disabled people and organisations in the Putney community, to help us identify any barriers that may not be obvious through automated testing alone.

Contact for Accessibility Requests

If you experience any difficulty using the Putney Removals website, notice content that is not accessible, or need information about our Putney removals services in an alternative format, you can contact us using the contact form on our website or by writing to our office address published on our contact page.

Please tell us which page you were visiting, what you were trying to do, and the type of device or software you are using, such as a screen reader or browser. We will review your request and aim to respond as soon as reasonably possible. Where practical, we will provide the information you need in an accessible format or explain what alternative options are available.

Future Accessibility Goals

We will continue to review the Putney Removals website against WCAG 2.1 AA standards and consider future updates to meet higher levels of accessibility where feasible. Our aim is to ensure that everyone in the Putney area, and all visitors to our site, can access clear information and request removals services in a way that suits their needs.
