APN Lofts Accessibility Statement

1. About This Accessibility Statement

APN Lofts aims to make this website as accessible and usable as reasonably possible for homeowners, property owners, professionals and service providers using our loft conversion guidance, enquiry forms and project support pages.

​

APN Lofts forms part of the wider APN Home and Architectural Partner Network structure. References to “APN Lofts”, “APN Home”, “APN”, “we”, “us” or “our” may include the Architectural Partner Network and related APN homeowner support services.

​

This Accessibility Statement explains the approach we take to website accessibility and how users can contact us if they experience difficulty using the site.

​

​

2. Our Accessibility Aim

We want APN Lofts to be clear, practical and easy to use.

​

Our aim is for visitors to be able to:

​

• read loft conversion guidance without unnecessary barriers;

• navigate the website using clear menus and page headings;

• understand the purpose of each page;

• complete enquiry forms where reasonably possible;

• contact APN Lofts if they need help using the website or submitting an enquiry;

• access information on desktop, tablet and mobile devices.

​

​

3. Accessibility Standards

We use the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines as a useful benchmark for improving website accessibility.

​

Where reasonably practical, APN Lofts aims to follow the principles of WCAG 2.2, which focus on making website content perceivable, operable, understandable and robust.

​

This means we aim to keep content readable, navigation logical, page structure clear and forms as straightforward as possible.

​

​

4. Website Content

APN Lofts uses practical homeowner guidance, plain language, headings, short sections and clear calls to action to help users understand loft conversion options and project stages.

​

We aim to avoid unnecessary jargon. Where technical terms are used, we try to explain them in the surrounding content.

​

We also aim to use descriptive page titles, headings and link text so that visitors can understand where they are on the website and what action they are taking.

​

​

5. Images and Visual Content

APN Lofts may use images, illustrations, icons and visual design elements to support homeowner guidance.

​

Where images are used for meaningful content, we aim to provide suitable alternative text or surrounding text so the purpose of the image can be understood.

​

Some decorative images may not contain detailed alternative text where they do not add essential information.

​

​

6. Forms and Enquiries

APN Lofts uses enquiry forms to collect project information from homeowners who may want guidance, project support or introductions through APN Home and the Architectural Partner Network.

​

We aim to make forms as clear and practical as possible by using simple labels, logical sections and explanatory wording.

​

If you have difficulty using a form, you can contact us using the contact details shown on the website and we will try to assist where reasonably possible.

​

​

7. Known Limitations

APN Lofts is built using website tools, plugins and third-party services that may affect accessibility in some areas.

​

Possible limitations may include:

​

• embedded forms or third-party tools not being fully controlled by APN Lofts;

• some older uploaded documents or images not being fully accessible;

• decorative images or design elements not containing detailed descriptions;

• minor display differences across browsers, devices or screen sizes;

• occasional contrast, spacing or navigation issues as the website develops.

​

We will aim to review and improve these areas over time.

​

​

8. Third-Party Links and Services

APN Lofts may link to third-party websites, professionals, contractors, service providers, APN members or external resources.

​

We are not responsible for the accessibility of third-party websites or services. Each third-party provider is responsible for its own website, content, forms and accessibility approach.

​

​

9. Ongoing Improvement

APN Lofts is an evolving website. We expect to add new guides, local pages, forms and project support content over time.

​

As the website develops, we aim to review accessibility issues and make reasonable improvements where practical.

​

This may include improving headings, labels, alternative text, link descriptions, form wording, mobile layout and page structure.

​

​
