Watford Football Club, also proudly known as The Hornets, has existed since the early days of organised football in England. Its beginnings have been traced back to 1881 when a group of teenagers staged kickabouts in Cassiobury Park. Today, Watford FC plays in the Championship with fans spanning across the world.
Watford FC is committed to providing a safe and accessible experience for all disabled supporters. Following the completion of developments around the stadium to improve accessibility, Watford FC has switched its focus to supporting people with hidden disabilities.
As part of this campaign, their digital landscape needed assessing to support people with disabilities, visual impairments, or people who speak English as a second language. To allow everyone to connect on a level playing field, they wanted to provide accessibility tools to allow all fans to engage with the club.
To support all Watford FC fans worldwide, they have launched their new inclusive website with Recite Me assistive technology. This innovative, accessibility software will help bring supporters closer to their club by allowing fans to read and engage with the latest Watford content barrier-free regardless of disability, age, or language.
The accessibility and language toolbar provides several features to give a visitor full control over the customisation of the website to suit their needs.
These features include a screen reader, styling options, reading support, and a translation tool with over 100 languages, including 65 text-to-speech voices.
Kick start your journey to make your website accessible and inclusive for everyone by exploring Recite Me’s suite of tools.
