ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT

Last updated: 18th December 2026

1. Our Commitment

The HoLT is committed to making our website accessible to as many people as possible. We want everyone to be able to access, understand and interact with our content, community features, and resources, regardless of how they access the internet. We aim to follow recognised accessibility standards and best practices in digital accessibility. W3C

2. Standards We Aim to Meet

We strive to align the design, development and content of our website with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG),  the international standard for web accessibility. These guidelines help ensure content is:

  • Perceivable: Users can perceive the information being presented.

  • Operable: Users can navigate and interact with all functionality.

  • Understandable: Information and user interface operation are clear.

  • Robust: Content works with a wide range of assistive technologies. W3C

We endeavour to meet WCAG Level AA success criteria wherever practicable.

3. What We’ve Done to Improve Accessibility

To make The HoLT website more accessible, we have:

  • Used clear and consistent navigation and page structure.

  • Included meaningful alternative text for images and icons.

  • Designed for keyboard accessibility.

  • Ensured text content is readable and scalable across devices.

  • Used accessible colour contrast and font sizes.

We are continuously working to improve accessibility, including reviewing and updating content, layouts, and interactive elements to be as inclusive as possible.

4. Known Limitations

Despite our efforts, there may still be instances where parts of the site do not fully meet WCAG AA standards. For example:

  • Some third-party content or embedded media may not support all assistive technologies.

  • Certain interactive elements or forms may not yet achieve full keyboard operability.

  • Some older documents or PDFs may not be fully optimised for screen readers.

We are actively addressing known limitations and prioritising fixes as part of our ongoing accessibility work.

5. Feedback and Contact

If you have difficulty accessing any part of this website, or if you encounter an accessibility issue, you can contact us:

6. Monitoring and Updates

We regularly review this policy and the accessibility of our site. This policy will be updated as necessary to reflect improvements, changes to standards, or new legal requirements.
