Accessibility Statement

1. Our Commitment to Accessibility

Broadleaf Tree Surgery & Landscaping believes that everyone should be able to access information about our services, regardless of their abilities or the technology they use.

We aim to provide a website that is clear, straightforward to navigate and usable across a wide range of devices. Accessibility is considered as part of the website's design and ongoing maintenance.

2. Accessibility Standards

Our aim is to work towards the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA, which provide internationally recognised recommendations for making web content more accessible.

These guidelines cover areas such as readable content, keyboard navigation, clear page structure, sufficient colour contrast and compatibility with assistive technologies.

3. Accessibility Considerations

The website has been designed with accessibility considerations in mind, including:

• Clear headings and a logical organisation of page content.
• Readable typography and consistent page layouts.
• Responsive design for desktop, tablet and mobile devices.
• Descriptive links and buttons where practical.
• Alternative text for meaningful images where provided.
• Consideration of keyboard access and visible focus indicators.
• Appropriate text and background contrast where possible.

These are design objectives and considerations rather than a guarantee that every part of the website has been fully tested.

4. Known or Potential Accessibility Limitations

Although we aim to make the website accessible, some content or features may not work as expected for every user.

Areas that may require further review include:

• Older images that may not contain sufficiently descriptive alternative text.
• Documents or downloadable files that may not be fully accessible to screen-reading software.
• Third-party tools or embedded content that may have their own accessibility limitations.
• Certain interactive elements that may behave differently with assistive technologies.

This list identifies potential areas for review and is not the result of a completed technical audit. We welcome reports of any accessibility problems.

6. Third-Party Websites & Content

Our website may contain links to external websites, social media platforms or third-party services that are not controlled by Broadleaf.

We cannot guarantee the accessibility of external content. Each third-party provider is responsible for the accessibility of its own website and services.

7. Reporting Accessibility Problems

If you experience difficulty accessing any part of our website, please let us know.

We welcome feedback about accessibility barriers, missing information or content that is difficult to understand or navigate.

When contacting us, it is helpful to include the page address, a description of the issue and, if relevant, the device or assistive technology you were using.

We will consider your feedback and aim to provide the information in an alternative format where reasonably possible.

8. Reviewing This Statement

We intend to review this accessibility statement periodically and update it when significant changes are made to the website or when accessibility issues are identified.

Accessibility is an ongoing consideration, and we welcome suggestions that help improve the experience for visitors.
