Accessibility Statement

Last updated: 28 September 2026

The Glider Co. wants our website to be accessible and usable for as many people as reasonably possible.

We aim to make thegliderco.co.uk easy to navigate and understand, including for people who use assistive technologies.

Our approach

We aim to follow recognised accessibility practices, including relevant principles of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).

Our website is built using Squarespace, and we also aim to ensure that content we add ourselves is presented in an accessible way.

We have not completed a formal independent accessibility audit, so we do not claim that every part of the website is fully accessible.

Improvements

We will continue to improve accessibility as the website develops.

This may include improving:

  • Page structure and headings

  • Colour contrast

  • Alternative text for images

  • Keyboard navigation

  • Link descriptions

  • Form labels

  • The clarity and readability of written content

Reporting an accessibility problem

If you experience an accessibility problem or believe that part of the website is difficult to use, please contact:

wardtechnologiesltd@gmail.com

Please describe the problem and, where possible, tell us which page or feature you were trying to use.

We will consider reasonable ways of providing the relevant information or assistance.

Review

We will review this statement when major changes are made to the website and periodically as the site develops.
