In plain English
The scan found some issues on haywardrec.org that might make it hard for visitors with disabilities to use. For example, some text is hard to read because it doesn't stand out enough from its background, which can be a problem for people with low vision. To improve accessibility, start by fixing the contrast issues, as this will help visitors who use screen readers or have trouble seeing. Automated scans like this one catch many problems, but not all, so further review is still needed.
Findings
Each item is one failing rule; the count shows how many elements on the page trigger it. Severity follows axe-core impact levels.
Light grey text on white, or text over photos, is hard or impossible to read for people with low vision or color blindness, and for anyone outdoors on a phone.
Who it affects
Makes a task significantly harder (low contrast, links with no name, missing frame titles).
First fix
Use a darker text color or lighter background so the contrast ratio is at least 4.5:1 (3:1 for large text).
Ensure that elements labelled through their content must have their visible text as part of their accessible name
