Forever Held is committed to making our website as accessible and inclusive as possible, so that everyone can access information about our charity and the services we provide.

We understand that accessibility is especially important for those navigating our website during difficult or emotional times, and we aim to ensure our content is clear, calm and easy to use.


Our commitment to accessibility

We aim to make the Forever Held website accessible to as many people as possible. This includes ensuring that users can:

– Navigate the website using a keyboard
– Zoom in up to 200% without loss of content or functionality
– Read text that is clear and well-spaces
– Use the website with screen readers and assistive technologies

We strive to follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at AA level where possible.


What we are doing to improve accessibility

We have taken steps to make our website more accessible, including:

– Using clear, readable fonts and appropriate colour contrast
– Structuring content with headings for easier navigation
– Keeping language simple and avoiding unnecessary jargon
– Ensuring links and buttons are clearly labelled
– Designing pages with minimal clutter and distractions

Accessibility is an ongoing process and we continue to review and improve our website.


Limitations and ongoing improvements

We are aware that some parts of the website may not yet be fully accessible. This may include:

We are actively working to address these areas as the charity grows and resources allow.
