This site is built for older adults, so accessibility shaped the design from the first page onward.
The target is the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA. Targeting a standard is not the same as certifying against it, and this page makes no claim of full conformance. What follows is what has actually been done.
What is in place
- Large type. Body text starts larger than the web average and scales with your browser’s text-size setting. The layout is built to reflow when you zoom to 200 percent. If you find a page where zooming cuts text off, please report it.
- High contrast. Every text and background pairing on the site was measured against the WCAG contrast formula before it was used, and color alone never carries meaning.
- Keyboard navigation. Every link, button and form field can be reached and operated with the keyboard alone. Nothing needs a mouse, and nothing traps the keyboard.
- Visible focus. Whatever the keyboard is on is outlined clearly, with the outline set away from the control so it stays easy to see.
- A skip link. Press Tab on any page and the first stop is a link that jumps straight past the header to the main content.
- Reduced motion. If your device is set to reduce motion, the few transitions on the site switch off. Nothing here moves on its own, flashes, or plays automatically.
- Generous targets. Buttons, links in the menu and form controls are sized well above the minimum, which helps if a pointer is hard to hold steady.
- Plain structure. Headings run in order, images carry text descriptions when they convey something, decorative images are hidden from screen readers, and every form field carries a real, visible label.
Where it may fall short
No site is finished. Content added later can introduce problems that testing has not caught yet, and some assistive technology combinations behave in ways that only a real user discovers. If you hit one of those, the report is genuinely useful.
Tell us about a barrier
Send a note through the contact page. Say which page you were on, what you were trying to do, and what happened instead. If you know what you are browsing with — a screen reader, magnification, voice control, a particular browser — that detail speeds up the fix. Anything reported gets looked into, and what can be corrected will be.
