Accessibility statement

We want everyone — especially people with hearing loss — to be able to use this website and app comfortably.

⚠️ Draft for review. Update the dates and any specifics once a full accessibility check has been completed.

Our commitment

BFG Hearing Solutions is committed to making our website and member app accessible to as many people as possible, in line with our duties under the Equality Act 2010. We aim to follow the internationally recognised Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 to level AA as a target.

What we've done

  • Clear, large text and simple layouts designed with older clients in mind
  • Simple, consistent navigation with a clear way back to your home on every page
  • A voice option — you can speak to our assistant instead of typing
  • Multiple languages in the member area
  • Captions/written guidance rather than audio-only content
  • Good colour contrast and labelled buttons and form fields

If you need help

If you have difficulty using any part of our website or app, please tell us — we're a hearing-care clinic and we're glad to help in whatever way suits you:

We'll provide information in an alternative format on request (for example, larger print, or read out to you over the phone), and we'll make reasonable adjustments to help you access our services.

Known limitations & feedback

We're continually improving. If you find something that doesn't work well for you, please let us know and we'll aim to fix it. Your feedback helps us make things better for everyone.
