Accessibility

We want everyone who runs a business to be able to use VexLedger. We aim to meet level AA of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 across this website and the VexLedger service, and we work on fixing problems when we find them.

What we do

• Keyboard and screen readers. Everything can be used from the keyboard. Pages have a skip link, clear headings, labelled form fields, and descriptive link and button text. Panels and menus trap focus correctly and close with the Escape key.
• Readable text. Text is never smaller than 13 pixels, and the service lets you change the text size. Colours are chosen to meet AA contrast, and information is never shown by colour alone.
• Choice of display. The service has light and dark themes and respects your device’s reduced-motion setting.
• Plain English. We write in plain language and explain accounting terms when we use them.

Known limitations

• Some of the reports and tables in the service are wide and need horizontal scrolling on small screens.
• The charts in the service summarise figures that are also available as tables, but a few charts are not yet fully described to screen readers.
• Documents we generate, such as PDF invoices and accounts, follow the statutory format and may not be fully tagged for assistive technology.

Tell us about a problem

If you cannot use part of VexLedger, or you need information in another format, use our contact form, choose Something else, and start your message with “Accessibility”. Tell us the page and what went wrong, and the assistive technology you use if you are happy to. We aim to reply within five working days and to fix problems promptly.

If you are not happy with our reply, you can contact the Equality Advisory and Support Service (EASS).

This statement was prepared on 11 November 2026 from our own testing, and we review it whenever the service changes significantly.
