Accessibility Statement
What we do so that this website works for everyone, and how to tell us about a problem.
We want showlixir.com to work for every visitor, including people who use a screen reader, a keyboard or a magnifier. This statement explains what showlixir has done, which gaps remain and how to report a barrier.
Our approach
We treat accessibility as part of building and maintaining this website, not as a separate task. Whenever a page is added or the design changes, we check that the content can still be read with a screen reader, used with a keyboard and enlarged in the browser. This statement covers the pages published under showlixir.com.
Other ways to reach us
If a page on showlixir.com does not work for you, the same information is available without the website. Reach us by telephone on 01722 410286, by email at [email protected] or by post at 14 Castle Street Works, Salisbury SP1 1TT, and on request we will send the content of a page in another form.
Standards
Our goal is conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at level AA. We describe the site as partially conformant, because a few elements still fall short of individual criteria; pages are reviewed regularly and problems are fixed as they are found.
Feedback
If you come across a barrier on this website, or cannot find information you need, please tell us by email at [email protected] or by telephone on 01722 410286. It helps to name the page, describe what happened and mention the browser or assistive technology you used; we aim to answer within five working days.
Limitations we know of
Several illustrations are generic, and their alternative text names the subject without describing it in detail.
Measures taken
Pages use semantic HTML: headings follow one order, lists are marked up as lists, and link texts stay meaningful out of context. Navigation and main content form separate regions, and the language of each page is declared for screen readers. Images that carry information have alternative texts, decorative ones are marked as such.
Text and background colours are combined to reach a contrast ratio of at least 4.5 to 1 for body copy, links and buttons. Because sizes are given in relative units, zooming or increasing the browser font size does not disturb the layout. The website can be operated with a keyboard alone.
Preparation of this statement
The present statement is dated 26 October 2026 and rests on a self-assessment carried out by showlixir, not on an external audit. We examined the navigation, the contact form and the main page types ourselves, using a keyboard, browser zoom and a screen reader. We review the text once a year and whenever the website is rebuilt.
