This accessibility statement applies to the Ideal Store website at idealstore.co.uk. It explains the steps taken to make the website easier to use and how to report an accessibility issue.
Our accessibility aim
Ideal Store wants this website to be usable by as many people as possible. The site has been built with accessibility in mind, including clear navigation, readable text, keyboard-friendly controls and content that works without relying on JavaScript for essential information.
We aim to follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA where practical for this type of small business website.
What should work well
The website has been built to support common accessibility needs, including:
- Semantic HTML for page structure, headings, navigation and main content.
- A visible skip link to help keyboard users move straight to the main content.
- Keyboard-accessible navigation and interactive elements.
- Visible focus styles for links, buttons and form controls.
- Responsive layouts that work across mobile, tablet and desktop screen sizes.
- Text that can be zoomed in standard browsers without the main content becoming unusable.
- Descriptive link text where possible.
- Form labels and help text on form fields.
- Alternative text for meaningful images, with decorative images hidden from assistive technology.
- Core page content that is available in HTML rather than being injected by JavaScript.
Known issues and checks
The website is still being checked and improved. Current areas to keep under review include the contact form, embedded maps, mobile navigation behaviour and any future interactive features added to the site.
Where possible, issues will be fixed as part of normal website maintenance. If something is difficult to use, please report it using the contact details below.
