accessibility

Last updated:02 September 2026

​

Ashridge Projects Ltd wants ashridgeprojects.co.uk to be accessible and usable by as many people as reasonably possible.

 Our accessibility approach

We are working towards the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines WCAG 2.2 Level AA. This is an aim and should not be read as a claim of full conformance unless the completed website has been tested and the result confirmed.

The website is being designed to support:

- keyboard navigation;
- visible keyboard focus;
- logical heading structure and reading order;
- meaningful alternative text for informative images;
- decorative images being hidden from assistive technology;
- sufficient colour contrast;
- text resizing and responsive reflow;
- descriptive link and button labels;
- labelled form fields, clear instructions and understandable error messages;
- reduced-motion preferences where animation is used; and
- use with current browsers and common assistive technologies.

 Known limitations

Before publication, replace this section with the findings from accessibility testing.

Potential limitations requiring review include:

- third-party components supplied by Wix or other providers;
- uploaded PDF, drawing or project documents;
- older project images where suitable descriptions are not yet available;
- embedded maps, videos or other external content; and
- content added after launch through the CMS.

If any content is not accessible, contact us and we will consider a reasonable alternative format where practicable.

 Feedback and assistance

If you experience an accessibility problem or need information in another format, email: info@ashridgeprojects.co.uk

Please describe the page, content or problem and the format you need. We aim to acknowledge accessibility enquiries within 30 days.

Testing and review

Before this statement is published, record:

- the date the website was tested;
- whether testing was manual, automated or both;
- browsers, devices and assistive technologies tested;
- the pages and user journeys tested;
- known issues and planned fixes; and
- the date of the next review.

This statement should be reviewed whenever the website receives a significant design or platform change and at reasonable intervals thereafter.
