1. CURRENT CONFORMANCE STATUS
------------------------------------------------------------
Our site was audited on **[15 June 2025]** against WCAG 2.1 AA with automated and manual tests (axe DevTools, NVDA, VoiceOver, Lighthouse).  
**Partially conformant**: most content meets the standard, but the following issues remain:

| WCAG success criterion | Issue | Planned fix |
|------------------------|-------|-------------|
| 1.4.3 Contrast (Minimum) | Some small grey text on product cards | Adjust colour palette by Aug 2025 |
| 2.4.1 Bypass blocks | “Skip to main content” link missing | Add link in header template by Jul 2025 |
| 2.1.1 Keyboard | Cookie banner “Close” button not focusable | Fix in CMP v2 rollout Jul 2025 |

We monitor progress quarterly.
