Website Accessibility Statement
Last updated: May 2026
1. Our Commitment
At Long Play Apparel, we want our website to be accessible and easy to use for as many people as possible.
We are committed to making longplayapparel.co.uk usable for all customers, including people with disabilities, access needs, different devices, assistive technologies, or slower internet connections.
We aim to provide a website that is clear, simple to navigate and usable by everyone.
2. Accessibility Standards
We aim to follow recognised accessibility best practices where reasonably possible, including guidance from the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, also known as WCAG.
These guidelines help make websites more accessible for people who use:
- Screen readers
- Keyboard-only navigation
- Voice control software
- Screen magnifiers
- Alternative input devices
- Mobile devices and tablets
We understand that accessibility is an ongoing process, and we will continue to review and improve our website where possible.

- Images include useful alternative text where appropriate

- Colour contrast is suitable for readability
- The website can be used across different screen sizes

4. Vintage Product Images and Descriptions
As a vintage and pre-loved clothing business, product images are an important part of how we show item condition.
We aim to use clear photographs and honest product descriptions to help customers understand each item before purchase.
Where possible, we describe visible wear, marks, flaws, sizing information and measurements in the product listing.
If you need additional details about an item, or if you have difficulty viewing images or reading product information, please contact us before ordering and we will do our best to help.
