Accessibility Statement

Horsmonden Short Mat Bowls Club wants this website to be straightforward to read and use. WCAG 2.2 level AA guides the website's design, but the club does not claim full compliance.

Our accessibility aim

The website aims to provide:

  • clear, readable content in plain language;
  • good colour contrast;
  • keyboard-accessible navigation and visible keyboard focus;
  • responsive layouts for mobile, tablet and desktop screens;
  • descriptive alternative text for meaningful images;
  • straightforward links, headings and page structure; and
  • support for browser zoom and text enlargement.

Current status

This beta has received a focused review of keyboard navigation, responsive presentation, heading structure, image alternatives and colour use. It has not undergone a comprehensive accessibility audit, so the club does not claim full WCAG 2.2 AA compliance.

The statement and website will need review again before public launch and after significant content or design changes.

Map and third-party content

The embedded Google map is supplied by a third party and may have accessibility limitations that the club cannot control.

As alternatives, the website provides the village hall name and address, a text link to driving directions and the what3words location ///cabinets.fired.expressed ↗.

Village hall access

This statement covers the website. It does not make any unverified claim about physical accessibility at Horsmonden Village Hall.

If you have particular access requirements, please ask the group before attending so that current information can be checked.

Report a problem or request another format

If you find an accessibility problem, need information in another format or cannot use part of the website, please tell the group what page or content is affected and what would help. The group will consider a reasonable alternative.

Email [email protected] about website accessibility or another format. Technical correspondence sent to this address reaches Andrew.
