Made in Shoreditch is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for all users, including those with disabilities. We strive to continually improve the user experience for everyone and to apply the relevant accessibility standards in all areas of our website.

Our Commitment

We want everyone who visits madeinshoreditch.co.uk to feel welcome and find the experience seamless, enjoyable, and engaging — regardless of ability or technology.

To achieve this, we aim to:

  • Maintain a consistent, navigable structure across the site
  • Ensure content is readable, scalable, and screen-reader friendly
  • Provide alt text for all meaningful images
  • Support keyboard-only navigation where possible
  • Ensure links and interactive elements are clearly identifiable
  • Use headings and landmarks to aid screen reader navigation

Standards and Guidelines

Our site is developed with WCAG 2.1 Level AA guidelines in mind. These are internationally recognized standards for accessibility established by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).

We regularly audit our content and templates to identify accessibility issues and improve performance across devices and assistive technologies.

Known Issues

While we are working hard to make our content fully accessible, we acknowledge that some areas of the site may not yet meet full compliance. This includes:

  • Older articles and archived media that may lack updated alt text
  • Third-party integrations or embedded content (e.g., social media widgets, video players) that may not be fully accessible
  • Occasional issues with dynamic content or older blog templates

We’re actively reviewing and updating these areas.
