Accessibility statement

Last updated 9 November 2026.

Prepared: 9 November 2026

Our commitment

Walk4Sahibzaade CIC wants everyone to be able to use walk4sahibzaade.com, whatever device or assistive technology they use. The site is built to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.2 at level AA.

What we have done

• Every page can be used with a keyboard alone, with a visible focus indicator.
• Text and background colours meet the AA contrast ratio. Gold text is only used on dark backgrounds.
• Text can be resized to 200 percent and the layout adapts to small screens without loss of content.
• Images carry meaningful alternative text; decorative images are hidden from screen readers.
• Forms have visible labels, clear error messages and no time limits.
• Animation such as the countdown and step counter is switched off when your system asks for reduced motion.
• Punjabi words set in Gurmukhi are marked with the correct language so screen readers pronounce them properly.

Known limitations

• Videos and social media posts are embedded from YouTube, Instagram, Facebook and X. Their players and captions are controlled by those companies and may not be fully accessible. The katha videos may not have accurate captions.
• The downloadable PDF documents (Sikh Rehat Maryada, Illustrated Martyrdom Tradition, Basic Teachings of Sikhism) were produced by third parties and may not be tagged for screen readers.
• Some older photographs and graphics from previous years contain text that is not repeated on the page.

We are working through these and will update this statement as they are fixed.

Alternative formats and feedback

If you need any content in a different format, such as large print, plain text or a described version of a graphic, email [email protected] and tell us what you need. We aim to respond within 7 days.

If you find a problem that is not listed here, please tell us the page address and what went wrong. We treat accessibility problems as bugs and fix them as a priority.

Enforcement

As a community interest company we are not a public sector body covered by the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) Accessibility Regulations 2018, but we follow the same standard by choice. If you are not satisfied with our response you can contact the Equality Advisory and Support Service (EASS), which advises on the Equality Act 2010.
