Accessibility statement

Our commitment

We aim to meet WCAG 2.2 Level AA standards. This covers four principles:

• Perceivable — Content can be consumed by sight, hearing, or assistive technology.
• Operable — Every interactive element works with a keyboard, not just a mouse.
• Understandable — Content is written in plain English with predictable navigation.
• Robust — The site works across modern browsers and assistive technologies.

What we've done

• Semantic HTML5 throughout — proper heading hierarchy, landmark regions, and ARIA labels where needed.
• Skip-to-content link for keyboard and screen reader users.
• All interactive elements are keyboard-accessible and have visible focus indicators.
• Colour contrast meets WCAG AA minimum ratios (4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text).
• Text can be resized up to 200% without loss of content or functionality.
• No content that flashes more than three times per second.
• Forms use properly associated labels and error messages.
• Navigation is consistent across all pages.

Known limitations

We're not perfect. Here's what we're working on:

• Blog images: Some older blog posts may have images without alt text. We're adding these as we review older content.
• Third-party embeds: Where we embed content from other platforms, we can't control their accessibility.
• Cookie banner: We offer Accept All (essential + anonymised analytics) and Essential Only (no analytics). If you change your mind, clear your cookies and revisit — you'll be prompted again.

Feedback

We genuinely want to know if something doesn't work for you. If you find an accessibility issue on this site:

• Email: robert@bluepenguin.digital
• Phone: 07356 268664

We aim to acknowledge feedback within 2 business days and fix issues within 10 business days where possible.
