Keyboard navigation is a priority: all interactive elements for anyone searching for an Islington gardener can be reached and operated using a keyboard alone. We make sure focus indicators are visible, tab order is logical, and skip links or landmark regions are present to allow quick movement around the page. Keyboard users should find menus, booking controls, and contact prompts straightforward and usable.

To support diverse needs, we provide multiple ways to access information about gardening in Islington. These include clear headings, concise paragraphs, lists, and alternative document formats upon request. We use lists for navigation and service breakdowns so that people using assistive tech, or those who prefer simpler reading, can find key details quickly.
