Accessibility Statement
This statement was last updated on 22nd July 2026
We at Ribble Valley Jazz and Blues are working to make our site www.rvjazzandblues.co.uk accessible to people with disabilities.
What web accessibility is
An accessible site allows visitors with disabilities to browse the site with the same or a similar level of ease and enjoyment as other visitors. This can be achieved with the capabilities of the system on which the site is operating, and through assistive technologies.
Accessibility adjustments on this site
We have adapted this site in accordance with WCAG [2.0 / 2.1 / 2.2 - select relevant option] guidelines, and have made the site accessible to the level of [A / AA / AAA - select relevant option]. This site's contents have been adapted to work with assistive technologies, such as screen readers and keyboard use. As part of this effort, we have also [remove irrelevant information]:
-

-
Set the language of the site

Set the content order of the site’s pages
-
Defined clear heading structures on all of the site’s pages
-
Added alternative text to images

Implemented color combinations that meet the required color contrast

Reduced the use of motion on the site

Ensured all videos, audio, and files on the site are accessible
Declaration of partial compliance with the standard due to third-party content
The accessibility of certain links on the site depend on contents that do not belong to the organization, and instead belong to Ribble Valley FM. The following pages are affected by this: Ribble Valley FM. We therefore declare partial compliance with the standard for these pages.
Venues
Ribble Valley Jazz and Blues put on gigs and events in community venues. Every effort is made to ensure that all venues are accessible to everyone, however, due to the constraints of some venues this is not always possible. We will always identify on events whether there are any accessibility issues. Please contact Ribble Valley Jazz and Blues if you experience any difficulties in the venues that we use.
