Accessibility statement

Legacie wants everyone to be able to use this website — to find a home, follow a development, join our supply chain or simply get in touch. This statement explains how accessible the site is, how we test it, and how to tell us if something does not work for you.

Our standard

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, level AA. This site is partially conformant: it meets the standard except for the limitations listed below.

What we do

• Every page is tested automatically against WCAG 2.0, 2.1 and 2.2 at levels A and AA before release, and key journeys — navigation, the developments filter, galleries and the enquiry form — are checked with a keyboard alone.
• All functionality works with a keyboard, focus is always visible, and a “Skip to content” link is the first thing on every page.
• Text and interface colours meet the AA contrast ratios of 4.5:1 for body text and 3:1 for large text and controls.
• If you have asked your device to reduce motion, animations, parallax and the homepage background video are switched off. Anything that moves for longer than five seconds has a visible pause control.
• Pages use one main heading, a logical heading order, landmarks and descriptive link text, so assistive technology can navigate them.
• Images that carry information have text alternatives; decorative images are hidden from screen readers.
• The site works at 400% zoom and on small screens without horizontal scrolling, and content is not locked to one orientation.
• Form fields have visible labels, errors are explained in text next to the field, and nothing is required that the enquiry does not need.

Known limitations

• The homepage showreel and the two videos embedded in news articles (hosted on YouTube) do not have captions or transcripts yet.
• Some older news articles were written before this site was built; a few of their photographs have no descriptive text alternative.
• The enquiry form uses Google reCAPTCHA to stop spam. If reCAPTCHA cannot load, or presents a visual challenge you cannot complete, please phone us instead and we will take your enquiry by phone.
• Linked partner sites (RWinvest and Legacie Management and Lettings) and social media platforms are run separately and are outside the scope of this statement.

Tell us if something does not work

If you find a problem we have not listed, or you need information in a different format, call us on +44 (0) 151 207 9990 or send us a message, and tell us the page and what went wrong.

You can also visit us at 80-82 Great George Street, Liverpool L1 5FF— by appointment, so that we can make sure the right person is there to help.
