1. Commitment Statement
At Storm Office, we are committed to ensuring our website is accessible to all individuals, regardless of ability or technology. We strive to provide a seamless and inclusive experience for everyone and aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA.
2. Accessibility Standards & Guidelines
Our website follows the principles outlined in the WCAG 2.1 Level AA, aligning with the UK Equality Act 2010, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and the EU’s EN 301 549 accessibility requirements. We design and develop using modern, accessible technologies, including semantic HTML, ARIA attributes, CSS, and JavaScript, and test using various browsers and assistive technologies.
3. Scope of the Statement
This statement applies to the Storm Office website and all content created using our WordPress block theme. Some third-party integrations, such as embedded videos, maps, or widgets, may not fully meet accessibility standards, but we work with providers to encourage accessibility wherever possible.
4. Accessibility Features
Our block theme supports and includes:
- Landmarks: Proper use of
<header>,<main>,<section>,<article>,<aside>, and<footer>elements for clear navigation. - Skip to Content links for quick access to main content.
- Responsive navigation menus with keyboard support.
- Appropriate ARIA attributes for improved assistive technology compatibility.
- Sufficient colour contrast and scalable text.
- Structured headings and semantic markup for screen readers.
- Accessible form labels and controls.
5. Known Limitations
While we work hard to ensure accessibility, some areas may not yet be fully optimised:
- Older PDF downloads may not be fully accessible.
- Certain third-party widgets or plugins may not provide full keyboard or screen reader support. We plan to review and improve these areas in our next development cycle.
