AFC Bolton is committed to ensuring that our website is accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. We want all visitors to enjoy a smooth, inclusive, and user‑friendly experience when accessing information about our club, teams, fixtures, and community activities.

Our Commitment

We aim to:

  • Provide equal access to all website content
  • Follow recognised accessibility standards
  • Continually improve usability and inclusivity
  • Support assistive technologies wherever possible

Our goal is to meet or exceed the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA.

Measures We Take

To support accessibility, we implement:

  • Clear, consistent navigation
  • High‑contrast text and readable font sizes
  • Alt text for images where appropriate
  • Keyboard‑friendly navigation
  • Descriptive link text
  • Responsive design for mobile and tablet users
  • Captions or transcripts for multimedia where possible

We regularly review our website to identify and fix accessibility issues.

Areas for Improvement

While we strive for full accessibility, some parts of the website may not yet be fully compliant. These may include:

  • Older documents or media
  • Third‑party content we cannot control
  • Occasional formatting inconsistencies

We are actively working to improve these areas.
