Web Design Wakefield

1. Our commitment

As a web design studio, accessibility is not an afterthought for us, it is part of how we build every website. We design and build to WCAG 2.1 AA as our standard, and this website, webdesignwakefield.co.uk, is built to that same standard.

We want everyone who visits this site, regardless of ability or the device they use, to be able to find information, understand it, and get in touch with us easily.

2. What we do

In practice, our approach to accessibility on this website includes:

Semantic, well-structured HTML with a logical heading hierarchy
Sufficient colour contrast between text and backgrounds (WCAG AA, at least 4.5:1)
Full keyboard navigation support throughout the site
Clearly visible focus states for keyboard users
Descriptive alt text on meaningful images
Respect for the prefers-reduced-motion setting, reducing animation for those who prefer it
Touch targets sized to at least 44×44px, in line with Apple's accessibility guidance
Responsive, scalable text with no fixed tiny font sizes, so content stays readable if you zoom or resize

3. Known limitations

We aim for this website to be fully accessible, but we recognise there may be areas that fall short. For example, some third-party embedded content, such as forms, maps, or booking widgets, may not fully meet the same standard, since we don't control how these third-party tools are built.

We are aware of this and continue to review third-party content on our site as part of our ongoing accessibility work. Where a genuine barrier exists, we will work to fix or replace it.

4. Reporting an accessibility issue

If you come across any part of this website that is difficult to use or does not feel accessible to you, please tell us. We take these reports seriously and want to fix genuine issues.

Please email kyle@thisisfoursocial.com with:

  • A brief description of the issue you experienced
  • The page it occurred on (a web address is ideal, if you have it)
  • The device, browser, or assistive technology you were using, if relevant

We aim to respond within a reasonable timeframe and will let you know what we plan to do about it.

5. Accessibility on client websites

This commitment does not stop with our own website. Accessibility is built into our process from day one on every project we deliver, from initial design through to development and launch. When we design and build a website for a client, whether that's a small business site or a full e-commerce build, we apply the same principles set out above: semantic structure, sufficient contrast, keyboard support, and responsive, readable text.

If you would like to know more about how we build accessible websites, take a look at our web design services, or get in touch to discuss your project.
