Technical information about this website’s accessibility
Lord Street Living is committed to making its website accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.
Compliance status
This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.2 AA standard, due to the non-compliances listed below.
Non-accessible content
The content listed below is non-accessible for the following reasons.
Non-compliance with the accessibility regulations
- The website does not respond well to browser text size adjustments. This can lead to significant clipping problems with some text and the menu. This fails WCAG 1.4.4 Resize text (AA).
Due to the design of the website, clipping problems can occur with some text and the menu when adjusting browser text size. The text size can only be set on the website and not every font size will work.
- All of the carousel items have an aria role conflict. This fails WCAG 1.3.1 Info and Relationships (A), and 4.1.2 Name, Role, Value (A).
This function is set by the third-party carousel tool. We will investigate alternative carousel options.
If you find an issue that we have yet to identify, please contact us using one of the routes described in the ‘Reporting accessibility problems with this website’ section of this statement.
Disproportionate burden
At this time, we have made no claims of disproportionate burden.

- We will use specialised 3rd party Accessibility Auditor to undertake regular auditing of the website content.
- Respond promptly to concerns raised about accessibility and address these where possible or provide reason where we are unable to make changes.
