Browser Title: Gardener New Cross Accessibility Overview

Raised garden bed and toolkit signifying accessible gardening in New Cross This accessibility statement explains how Gardener New Cross and our New Cross gardener services work to make information and services usable for everyone. Our goal is to ensure that people who use the gardening New Cross area information can access content with assistive technologies, including screen-readers, and can navigate using a keyboard. We aim to meet WCAG 2.1 AA compliance standards and to describe the measures in place to support inclusive access for local residents who seek an accessible gardener in New Cross.

We design pages and service descriptions so they are compatible with common assistive technologies. That includes using semantic HTML, landmarks, clear heading structure, and ARIA roles where needed to improve screen-reader support. We also pay attention to color contrast, readable typography, and responsive layouts so information about the accessible Gardener New Cross area displays clearly on different devices. Our content editors follow accessibility-aware writing practices and provide alternative text for images where appropriate.

Surrounding them are various garden elements, including a wicker basket, a red watering can, and a decorative plant pot with a floral pattern. The garden features green grass, neatly trimmed hedges, and a variety of shrubs and flowering plants, with some pink and purple blossoms visible.

Our accessible gardening pages include skip links and logical tab sequences to make it straightforward for visitors to find the information they need. Key features include:

  • WCAG 2.1 AA level conformance targets for content and navigation;
  • Screen-reader support and compatibility checks with major readers;
  • Full keyboard navigation for booking, contact forms, and service descriptions;
  • Accessible documents and clear, plain-language explanations about gardening services in New Cross.
