Man and a Van Brixton Accessibility Statement
Man and a Van Brixton is committed to providing an accessible and user friendly experience for all visitors, including disabled users, across the Brixton area and surrounding neighbourhoods. We aim to make it as easy as possible for everyone to find information about our local moving and transport services, request quotes, and arrange bookings online.
Our Accessibility Commitment
We are working towards meeting the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1, Level AA. These guidelines are internationally recognised standards that explain how to make web content more accessible to people with a wide range of access needs, including people who use assistive technologies.
Our goal is to ensure that people in the Brixton area who rely on accessible technology can use our Man and a Van Brixton website with confidence. We regularly review our content, design, and technical features to improve usability for as many people as possible.
Standards and Best Practice
Where practical, we design and develop our website using practices that support WCAG 2.1 AA success criteria. This includes attention to colour contrast, readable text, consistent navigation, clear headings, and logical page structure. We also work to ensure that forms, controls, and interactive elements are as accessible and intuitive as we can make them.
We understand that accessibility is an ongoing process in a busy, changing environment like Brixton. When we introduce new features or content for our man and a van services, we aim to test and review them for accessibility before and after launch.
Screen Reader Support
Our website is designed to be compatible with common screen readers and other assistive technologies used by customers in the Brixton area and beyond. We use semantic HTML wherever possible, including headings, lists, and descriptive labels, so that screen readers can present information in a clear and logical order.
Images that convey important information are given descriptive text alternatives, and we work to ensure that buttons and form fields have meaningful labels so that users who cannot see the screen can still understand and operate every key part of the site.
Keyboard Navigation
We recognise that some users are unable to use a mouse or touch screen and rely on keyboard navigation. Our Man and a Van Brixton website is built so that core content and main functions can be accessed using a keyboard alone.
We aim to provide a logical tab order, visible focus indicators, and keyboard accessible menus and forms. Users should be able to move through content step by step, activate links and buttons, and complete quote or booking forms without needing to switch to a mouse.
Visual Design and Readability
To support users with low vision or reading difficulties in the Brixton area, we use clear typography, simple layouts, and colour combinations that are chosen to help maintain sufficient contrast between text and background. Our pages are designed so that text can be resized using browser tools without loss of functionality.
Content is written in plain, straightforward language wherever possible, so that information about our local man and a van services can be understood quickly and easily by a wide range of users.
Limitations and Ongoing Work
While we aim for a high level of accessibility across our website, there may be some areas that do not yet fully meet WCAG 2.1 AA standards. This can be due to technical limitations, third party tools, or older content. We are actively working to identify and address these issues so that customers in Brixton who depend on accessible services can benefit from improvements over time.
We will continue to review our site, gather feedback, and make changes as standards, technologies, and user needs evolve.
