Accessibility isn’t a feature—it’s a fundamental right. Everyone, no matter how they see, hear, move, or process the world, deserves to feel at home in the digital space.
We don’t design for the majority—we design for every person. Because when someone feels like a guest—or worse, is left out—that’s not a gap. That’s a failure.
To us, accessibility is about dignity, presence, and belonging. It’s the baseline. Not generosity. Not trend. Just justice.
It Starts Right Here
Accessibility begins at our digital doorstep—our website, https://humanemind.com.
We’ve built it not just to work, but to welcome. Every part of it has been shaped with care, so it’s not only easy to navigate but meaningful to use—no matter your age, background, abilities, or circumstances.
Because this space isn’t just ours. It’s yours too. And you deserve to move through it freely, fully, and easily—without barriers.
From the very beginning, accessibility has been woven into the fabric of this website—not layered on later.
Every decision, from the structure and colour palette to the tiniest interface detail, has been made with inclusion in mind.
1. Accessibility by Design
We aim not just to comply, but to care. That’s why we follow (and aim to exceed) the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, as recommended under the Equality Act 2010 (UK).
This commitment lives in four core principles:
A. Perceivable
Everyone deserves to see, hear, and understand our content—whether they’re navigating with sight, sound, or cognitive variation.
a. Text Alternatives
Every image and non-text element is thoughtfully described with alt text, giving screen reader users a clear, equal experience.
b. Time-Based Media
We offer captions and transcripts for all video and audio content—whether live or recorded—so that no one is excluded from our message.
c. Adaptability
Users can resize text without losing content or function. High-contrast design options help those with low vision engage more comfortably and clearly.
B. Operable
Interaction shouldn’t be a struggle. Our website is designed to feel intuitive, no matter how you move through it.
a. Keyboard Navigation
Every part of our site can be navigated without a mouse. If you use a keyboard or assistive device, you’ll still have full control and ease of movement.
b. Timing Adjustment
We include options to extend time limits where they exist, so no one feels rushed or locked out due to slower response time.
c. Seizure Safety
We avoid flashing content, rapid animations, and anything that could risk physical discomfort or seizure. Your safety is non-negotiable.
C. Understandable
We believe clarity is a form of kindness. That’s why our content is designed to be easy to follow, intuitive to navigate, and forgiving of mistakes.
a. Clear Language
We speak plainly. Complex terms are explained, and we use simple, conversational language throughout the site.
b. Predictable Navigation
Menus, layouts, and page flows are consistent—so users can find what they need without confusion or guesswork.
c. Error Support
If something goes wrong, we offer clear messages and helpful suggestions, making it easier to recover and carry on.
D. Robust and Reliable
Our site isn’t built just for now—it’s built for what comes next.
a. Assistive Technology Compatibility
Whether you’re using a screen reader, magnifier, or adaptive device, our site is designed to work with it—reliably and without friction.
b. Future-Ready Design
As technologies evolve, so will we. Our code and content are developed to adapt, keeping accessibility at the heart of every update.
2. Commitment in Motion
Technology evolves. So do people. And so must we.
We continuously review, refine, and rethink how our website can better serve everyone who visits. From structure to interaction, we work to keep accessibility consistent across every corner of our site—moving, step by step, toward a digital space that feels open, equal, and barrier-free.
3. Feedback in Action
Your experience isn’t just data to us—it’s direction. If you face a barrier, spot something we’ve missed, or simply have an idea to make our website more accessible, we want to hear from you.
Please email us at [email protected] with “Website Accessibility” in the subject line.
We take every message seriously and do our best to respond swiftly—because inclusion isn’t complete until it’s felt by everyone.
4. Accountability in Practice
If you ever feel that your concerns haven’t been fully resolved, you have every right to raise them beyond us.
You can contact the Equality Advisory and Support Service (EASS) to raise your concerns or seek further support.
Your voice matters—always—and it deserves to be heard through to resolution.
Thank you for being part of this space!
