Reading this site
This website should work for anyone who needs to sell us a house, find a home with us, or check what they sent: with a keyboard, a screen reader, a magnified screen, a slow connection or scripts turned off. This statement says how close it comes, with the measurements, and how to ask for anything it does not do.
What we aim for
The site is built to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, version 2.2, at level AA. As a private company we are not covered by the accessibility regulations for public bodies, so this statement is not required of us; the Equality Act 2010 does require us to make reasonable adjustments for disabled people, and this page is part of how we do that.
This statement was prepared on 13 November 2026, from tests run on the live site that day, and it covers every page at this address, including the pages the site draws for a house or a name on the list.
What was tested
| What | How | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Screen widths | Every page loaded at 320, 390, 820, 1280 and 1600 pixels wide and scrolled top to bottom, measuring sideways overflow at every stop | All 16 pages: 0 pixels of sideways overflow at every width, no broken picture, no script error |
| Colour schemes | Every new or changed page loaded with the system set to light and to dark | The site stays dark in both, by design; 0 findings on any page in either setting for ground, type scale, controls and cut-off text |
| Text contrast | Each text colour measured against each background it is set on | Body text 15.75:1; the faintest text, grey on the darkest panel, 5.09:1; links 10.73:1 — all above the 4.5:1 that AA asks |
| Words over pictures | The screen captured with the words cleared, then every pixel under the words measured, the worst one counted | 31 measurements on 7 pages at five widths; the worst pixel is 5.27:1, on the first page at a phone’s width. Each was checked against a deliberately wrong ink, which failed as it should |
| Controls | Every link and button in the navigation measured at rest | Every navigation link and button paints a visible shape at rest and is at least 44 pixels tall: 0 failures on any page |
| Keyboard | Every page and both forms worked through with the keyboard alone | A skip link on every page; a visible amber focus ring on every link, button and field; no trap |
| Scripts off | Both forms sent, checked, changed and withdrawn with JavaScript turned off | Every form works; only the instant ward check needs scripts, and the ward is checked again when the form is sent |
| Motion | Pages loaded with “reduce motion” set | Nothing moves; the still state is the finished state, so nothing waits on an animation |
What works
- text that reflows to a phone’s width with no sideways scrolling
- zoom to 200% and beyond without losing words or controls
- every picture described in words, and the drawings too
- every form field labelled, and every error said in words
- headings in order on every page, and landmarks for the main parts
- typefaces served from this site, so text arrives on slow connections
What does not work well yet
One colour scheme
The site is dark in every setting, with light text. Some people read dark text on a light page more easily; your browser’s reader view shows any page that way.
The warmth in the drawings
The house drawings on the first page and on the put-forward form show warm and cold, sound and failed, partly by colour. The same facts are always written beside them in words, but the colour itself is not described line by line.
Not yet tested with people
The tests above are measurements and keyboard runs by us. The site has not yet been tested by disabled people using their own assistive technology. When it is, what they find goes on this page.
Pages we link to
Links to Companies House, the Historic England list entries, Nomis and other public sites lead to pages we do not control.
Another way
If you need anything on this site in another form — plain text in an email, large print by post, a form filled in with you by letter — write to homes@ilannest.space or to the registered office, say what you need and which page, and we will send it within five working days. The same goes for anything you find hard to use here: tell us what and where, and we will reply within two working days.
If we do not put it right
The Equality and Human Rights Commission is responsible for enforcing the Equality Act 2010. If you are not happy with how we answer a request about accessibility, the Equality Advisory and Support Service can advise you, free: equalityadvisoryservice.com, telephone 0808 800 0082.
You can also use our own complaints process; a complaint about access is answered on the same days as any other.
