Friends of Kingswood Park is a community group committed to making our website accessible to as many people as possible. We want everyone to be able to:

Listen to the website using a screen reader (including JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver)

Compliance status
This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.2 AA standard.
What this means
We have tested this website and addressed critical accessibility barriers. The website meets WCAG 2.2 Level A requirements and most Level AA requirements.
How accessible this website is
We know some parts of this website are not fully accessible:
Some images from our content management system may have similar alternative text descriptions, which could be repetitive for screen reader users
Some alternative text descriptions exceed the recommended length, though they remain descriptive and accurate
Some text elements may appear as headings visually but are not marked up as semantic headings in the code
These issues do not prevent access to content but may affect the user experience for some visitors using assistive technologies.
What we've done to improve accessibility
We have taken the following steps to ensure accessibility:
Added descriptive alternative text to all images (42 images)
Ensured all interactive elements are keyboard accessible
Provided clear, descriptive link text throughout the site
Implemented proper heading structure (H1-H5) for screen reader navigation
Made the website fully responsive for mobile and tablet devices
Enabled HTTPS security for all pages
Added accessibility labels to embedded content (maps and interactive elements)
Used semantic HTML throughout the website
Ensured sufficient colour contrast for readability
Made all tap targets appropriately sized for touchscreen devices
