Accessibility · The Spa Traveller

A better experience should be usable by more people

We are working to make The Spa Traveller easier to read, navigate and use across devices, assistive technologies and different access needs.

Accessibility is an ongoing product and editorial responsibility. We do not claim perfect conformance, and we welcome specific reports of barriers.

What we are working towards

Practical accessibility across the whole journey

Our goal is to align the site with WCAG 2.2 AA principles where practical, while continuing to test real pages, forms, navigation and interactive tools.

01

Structure & headings

Pages should use a logical heading order and meaningful landmarks so content is easier to scan and navigate with assistive technology.

02

Keyboard & focus

Menus, forms, buttons and interactive controls should remain operable from the keyboard with visible focus states.

03

Images & media

Informative images should have useful text alternatives. Decorative images should avoid creating unnecessary noise for screen-reader users.

04

Forms & errors

Labels, instructions and validation messages should make forms understandable without relying only on colour or visual position.

Known limitations

Some areas may still need improvement

The site is actively being rebuilt and migrated. During that work, some older content, third-party embeds, advertising units, affiliate tools or legacy components may not yet meet the standard we want.

Third-party services

Booking partners, video players, advertising services and embedded tools can have accessibility behaviour outside our direct control.

Legacy content

Older stories and pages may still contain structures or media added before the current accessibility standard was adopted.

Continuous testing

We are treating accessibility as an ongoing QA requirement rather than a one-off declaration.
