Our commitment

We aim to meet WCAG 2.2 level AA across this website and the Martyn's Law Workbook platform. Accessibility forms part of product testing rather than being checked once at the end.

What we have built in

Keyboard navigation — every interactive element can be reached and operated with a keyboard, including the navigation menus and the accordions.
Visible focus — a clear, high-contrast focus indicator on every focusable element.
Skip link — a "skip to main content" link as the first focusable item on every page.
Colour contrast — text and interface colours are chosen to meet the AA contrast ratios, and colour is never the only way information is conveyed.
Semantic headings — one h1 per page and a logical heading order beneath it.
Form labels — every field has a visible, associated label; hints and error messages are programmatically linked to their field.
Error descriptions — errors are described in text, listed at the top of the form, and focus moves to the first problem.
Alternative text — meaningful images have text alternatives; decorative graphics are hidden from assistive technology.
Touch targets — interactive controls are at least 44 × 44 CSS pixels.
Reduced motion — animation and smooth scrolling are disabled when your system asks for reduced motion.
Resizable text — the layout works at 200% zoom without loss of content or function.
Responsive — usable on desktop, laptop, tablet and smartphone, in portrait and landscape.
Works without JavaScript — every page is readable and every link works with scripting unavailable.
Forced colours — supported for users of Windows high contrast modes.

The platform

The Workbook application is designed to be usable on a phone for the things people actually do on a phone — reviewing actions, completing assessments, uploading evidence, updating an action's status and viewing plans. Some complex management functions are optimised for tablet or desktop, where a larger screen genuinely helps.

Known issues

We are still working towards full conformance. The newer account and workbook pages are built to the standard, but some older pages have not yet been fully retrofitted — in particular, colour contrast on a few buttons and some older form layouts may fall short of the AA contrast requirement. We are working through these, and an honest list here matters more to us than a blanket claim of conformance. If you hit a barrier we have not listed, please tell us (see below) and we will add it and prioritise a fix.

Compliance status

This site and platform are partially conformant with WCAG 2.2 level AA, based on an internal WCAG 2.2 self-assessment carried out on 15 September 2026. “Partially conformant” means most of the site meets the standard, with the exceptions noted under Known issues above.

Tell us if something does not work

If you cannot use part of this site or the platform, please tell us. Describe what you were trying to do, what happened, and what you were using — the browser, and any assistive technology. That is usually enough for us to reproduce it.

Email support@martynslawworkbook.co.uk. We aim to reply within 10 working days.

If you need information from this site in an alternative format, ask and we will provide it.
