Accessibility Statement — Hedge Trimming Aldgate
This accessibility statement explains how our hedge trimming Aldgate service approaches inclusion and access. It covers our commitment to meeting recognised standards, how we support people who use assistive technologies, and the steps we take to make our on-site and digital interactions as accessible as possible. Our goal is to ensure that anyone seeking hedge maintenance in Aldgate can access information and services without barriers.
We aim for WCAG 2.1 AA compliance as a baseline for our online materials and public documentation related to Aldgate hedge trimming. That means we adopt practical measures to ensure perceivability, operability, understandability, and robustness. These measures influence how we write content, design booking flows, and prepare printed information about our hedge care in Aldgate.
To support people using screen readers, our digital pages describing Aldgate hedge maintenance use semantic headings, descriptive link text and logical reading order. We include alternative text for images in public-facing media and avoid relying on images of text to convey essential instructions about trimming schedules or safety guidance. All audio and video material linked from our service pages is captioned or accompanied by transcripts where feasible.
Keyboard navigation is a priority for users who cannot use a mouse. Our informational pages and online forms related to hedge trimming in Aldgate are designed to be fully operable with keyboard-only input. Focus indicators are visible, tab order follows a logical sequence, and interactive elements are reachable and labelled so users can complete tasks such as checking service availability or requesting an accessibility accommodation.
On-site, our operatives are trained to offer reasonable adjustments when visiting properties in Aldgate for hedge care. We provide clear, verbal explanations of the work plan and can supply printed summaries in larger type on request. Staff are coached to use plain language, to repeat key points, and to check understanding to make physical appointments and service visits more accessible.
We also provide multiple ways of sharing accessibility information:
- Screen-reader support through structured content and ARIA landmarks where appropriate.
- Keyboard navigation compatibility for forms and interactive booking elements.
- Clear and understandable written instructions for quotes, schedules and safety advice.
We conduct regular reviews of our content about hedge trimming Aldgate to identify and fix accessibility barriers. These audits combine automated checks and manual testing with keyboard-only navigation and popular screen readers. When we find issues we prioritise fixes that impact the ability of people with disabilities to understand service scope, safety information, and how to request adjustments.
Where relevant, we follow progressive enhancement so that basic information about hedge maintenance Aldgate remains available even if advanced features are not supported by a user’s device. This approach helps customers who use older assistive technologies, or who have limited bandwidth during searches for local hedge care professionals.

We welcome ongoing input about how to improve access to our Aldgate hedge trimming and hedge maintenance services. While we do not list direct contact details here, accessibility requests are treated as a priority and handled sensitively. We review our policies and procedures regularly to align with WCAG 2.1 AA and common accessibility best practices, and to ensure that our local hedge trimming operations remain inclusive for all customers.
