Accessibility
We want Corey’s Farm to be a welcoming and accessible place for everyone, both when visiting us online and when spending time with us at the farm.
We recognise that everyone’s needs are different. We aim to make our website, information, activities and environment as accessible as reasonably possible, and we encourage visitors and families to talk to us about any individual requirements before their visit.
Accessibility at Corey’s Farm
Corey’s Farm supports children, young people and families with a wide range of needs. We understand that accessibility is about more than physical access and that people may experience our environment, communication and activities in different ways.
Where possible, activities and experiences can be adapted around the individual, taking into account their needs, abilities, communication preferences and comfort.
If you or someone you support has particular accessibility requirements, we recommend contacting us before your visit. This gives our team an opportunity to understand what you may need and discuss how we can best support you.
Planning your visit
As a working farm and outdoor environment, some areas may have uneven ground, changing weather conditions or other features that can affect accessibility.
If you have questions about physical access, mobility, facilities, sensory considerations or any other aspect of visiting Corey’s Farm, please contact us before travelling. We can provide current information about the site and help you understand what to expect.
We would much rather discuss your requirements with you in advance than make assumptions about what support you may need.
An accessible website
We have designed this website to be as clear, straightforward and accessible as possible.
Throughout the website, we have considered readability, colour contrast, text size, navigation and the way information is structured. We have also designed the site to work across different screen sizes, including mobile phones and tablets.
Our approach includes:
- Clear, consistent navigation throughout the website
- Readable text sizes and generous line spacing
- Strong contrast between text and backgrounds
- Descriptive headings that create a clear content hierarchy
- Clear and consistent buttons and links
- Layouts that adapt for desktop, tablet and mobile devices
- Meaningful alternative text for relevant images
- Avoiding reliance on colour alone to communicate important information
- Keeping language and page layouts as clear and uncomplicated as possible
- Providing important policies and information in accessible web-page formats where possible, rather than relying solely on downloadable documents.
Using this website
You should be able to navigate and understand the website at different screen sizes and increase the size of content using the zoom controls available within modern web browsers.
We have deliberately kept navigation consistent and avoided unnecessarily complex interactions so that important information can be found easily.
Where images provide meaningful information, we aim to provide appropriate alternative text. Decorative imagery should not prevent someone from understanding the content of a page.
Downloadable documents
Some information on this website may be provided as downloadable PDF documents.
We recognise that PDFs may not always be the most accessible format for every visitor. Where practical, important information is also presented directly on the website.
If you need a policy, document or other information in a different or more accessible format, please contact us and we will do our best to help.
Sensory and communication needs
We understand that some visitors may have sensory, communication or additional needs that affect how they experience new environments, animals, people, sounds or activities.
If there is anything that would help make a visit more comfortable or predictable, please let us know in advance. Our team can discuss individual requirements and provide information about what to expect from a visit to Corey’s Farm.
Something not working for you?
Accessibility is something we want to continue improving.
If you experience difficulty accessing any part of this website, cannot access a document, or find information that is difficult to read or understand, please tell us.
It is helpful if you can let us know which page or information you were trying to access and what difficulty you experienced. We can then try to provide the information another way and consider whether an improvement can be made for other visitors too.
Please contact directly for our full Accessibility policy.
