Using this website

Accessibility

This statement is to be adopted by the Pike View Hike committee.

What we have done

  • Every page is checked against WCAG 2.2 AA, the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, with automated tests.
  • The scrolling banner and the photo slideshow each have a pause button.
  • If your device is set to reduce motion, nothing on the website moves by itself.
  • On phones, the text over the home page photo is shaded so that it stays readable.

Where a colour in the design was too faint to read easily, only that use of it was changed:

  • Footer line under the name: now a lighter colour on the dark footer.
  • Footer links: now a lighter colour on the dark footer.
  • Footer small print: now a lighter colour on the dark footer.
  • Yellow labels above page titles: now a darker yellow.
  • Links in the opening paragraph of a page: now the same darker yellow.
  • The word “Gallery” on the home page: now a darker yellow.
  • The “Scroll” hint on the home page’s opening photo: now brighter.
  • Grey text on the white cards: now a darker grey.
  • Label on a contact card: now the same darker yellow as the labels above page titles.
  • Link icons on the Links page: now a darker yellow.
  • Home page photo on phones: now a stronger dark shade behind the text, so the words stay readable over any photo.

Known limitations

Many of our documents (PDFs), especially older ones such as past results, may not be accessible, and we can't provide accessible versions of them. If you need information from one, email hello@pikeviewhike.co.uk and we'll help.
