Our commitment
This statement covers the Anti Skint Club website. We’ll publish a version for our iOS and Android app when it launches.
We’re aiming to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 (opens in a new tab) at level AA. That’s the standard most UK organisations work to, and it’s what we check new features against before they go live.
In practice, that means you should be able to:
- zoom in up to 400% without text spilling off the screen or content being cut off
- get around the whole site using just a keyboard
- use the site with a screen reader (such as VoiceOver, NVDA or TalkBack)
- turn off or reduce animation
- read text that has enough contrast against its background
What we’ve done so far
- Keyboard navigation. Links, buttons, menus and forms can be reached and used with the keyboard, in a logical order, with a visible focus outline so you can see where you are.
- Reduced motion. If your device is set to reduce motion, our animated videos pause or show a still frame instead of playing, and other animations and transitions are switched off or kept to a minimum.
- Colour contrast. Our brand colours have been chosen and paired so that body text meets WCAG AA contrast ratios. We don’t rely on colour alone to get information across.
- Text alternatives. Meaningful images have alternative (alt) text. Purely decorative images and shapes are hidden from screen readers so they don’t add noise.
- Clear structure. Pages use proper headings, landmarks (like navigation, main content and footer) and lists, so assistive technology can describe the page and you can skip around it.
- Forms. Every form field has a visible label, required fields are marked, and errors and confirmations are announced to screen readers.
- Readable type. Our main text uses a clear, open typeface. Our hand-drawn marker font is only used for short headings.
- Plain English. We try to write simply and explain any jargon — including on pages like this one.
Video, captions and live sessions
Our website videos are short brand animations without speech. They have no sound you’d miss, and the key messages also appear as text on the page.
As the club launches, our intention is to:
- provide captions for on-demand Pod recordings and any video with speech
- offer live captions in Pod sessions where our video platform supports them
- let you choose how you speak to your Personal Mentor — video, phone or chat — so you can pick what works for you
- make transcripts available for key learning content
If you need a reasonable adjustment to take part in a Pod or mentoring session, please get in touch and we’ll do our best to sort it.
Known limitations
We know some parts of the site aren’t perfect yet:
- The site is still being built. Some pages use placeholder images and text, and these may not yet have the alt text or descriptions the finished versions will have.
- Some of our decorative styling (for example, slightly rotated headings and torn-paper edges) may be harder to read for some people when the page is heavily zoomed. We’re reviewing this.
- Features that aren’t live yet — such as accounts, the Planner, Power Tools, live Pods and the mobile app — haven’t been tested for accessibility. We’ll test them before they launch.
- We haven’t yet had the site independently audited. We plan to do this before launch and will update this statement with the results.
We use some third-party services (for example, for hosting and handling form submissions). We choose services with accessibility in mind, but we don’t control everything they do.
Tell us about a problem
If you find something on the site that’s hard to use, or you need information in a different format (such as large print, audio or plain text), please let us know via our contact page or by email at hello@antiskintclub.com (TBC).
It helps us if you include:
- the web address (URL) of the page
- what you were trying to do and what went wrong
- the device, browser and any assistive technology you were using
We aim to reply within 5 working days. If we can’t fix the problem straight away, we’ll tell you when we expect to, and help you get what you need in another way in the meantime.
Enforcement procedure
We’re a private company rather than a public sector body, so the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) Accessibility Regulations 2018 don’t formally apply to us. We’ve still chosen to follow the same approach and format, because it’s the right thing to do.
Under the Equality Act 2010 we must make reasonable adjustments so that disabled people aren’t put at a disadvantage. The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) (opens in a new tab) is responsible for enforcing the Equality Act in England, Scotland and Wales.
If you’ve contacted us about a problem and you’re not happy with how we responded, you can contact the Equality Advisory and Support Service (EASS) (opens in a new tab), which gives free advice on discrimination and human rights issues. If you’re in Northern Ireland, contact the Equality Commission for Northern Ireland (opens in a new tab).
Preparation of this statement
This statement was prepared on 24 October 2026. It’s based on a self-assessment carried out by the team building the site, checking pages against WCAG 2.2 AA using keyboard-only testing, browser accessibility tools and reduced-motion settings.
We’ll review it at least once a year, and whenever we launch a major new feature such as accounts or the mobile app.
