Rubbish Collection Kentish Town Accessibility Statement

Rubbish Collection Kentish Town is committed to making our website and our local rubbish collection services accessible and usable for everyone in the Kentish Town area. We want all residents, visitors, and businesses to be able to find information about our rubbish collection services easily, regardless of their abilities, technology, or level of experience online.

Our Commitment to Accessibility

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1, Level AA. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities, and more user friendly for everyone. Our goal is to provide an inclusive experience so that people using assistive technologies can access information about accessible rubbish collection in Kentish Town without barriers.

Accessibility is an ongoing process. We regularly review this website, update our content, and improve our code to maintain and enhance accessibility wherever reasonably possible.

Screen Reader Support

This website is designed to work with modern screen readers and other assistive technologies so that users can navigate and understand our content about rubbish collection in Kentish Town. We aim to provide clear headings, descriptive text, and meaningful structure to make information easier to follow.

We use text alternatives for important images where possible, and we strive to ensure that key information about collection times, service options, and contact details is available as text rather than only in visual formats.

Keyboard Navigation

We have taken steps to support users who navigate solely with a keyboard or alternative input devices. Our intention is that you should be able to move through the site in a logical order using the Tab, Shift plus Tab, and Enter keys, as well as arrow keys where appropriate.

Interactive controls such as forms and buttons are designed to be focusable and usable through keyboard navigation. We continue to test and improve focus indicators so that you can clearly see which element is currently selected as you move around the page.

Text, Layout, and Readability

We aim to keep text clear, concise, and easy to understand, particularly where we explain how to arrange rubbish collection in the Kentish Town area. We avoid unnecessary jargon and explain specialist terms where needed.

The layout is designed to be responsive so that content can be viewed on different devices and screen sizes without loss of information. We encourage users to adjust browser zoom, colours, and font sizes to suit their needs, and our pages should remain readable and functional under these changes.

Compatibility with Browsers and Assistive Technologies

This website is built to work with recent versions of major web browsers and commonly used assistive technologies. While we cannot support every possible combination of device and software, we test our pages with a range of settings to improve access for as many people as we can.

Limitations and Ongoing Improvements

Despite our best efforts to ensure accessibility across the site, there may be some areas where we can improve. Certain older documents, images, or embedded content may not fully meet WCAG 2.1 AA standards. We are working to bring such content in line with our accessibility goals when it is updated or replaced.

Contact for Accessibility Requests
