Twelve Studio, who were involved in the initial stages designing the new branch format, said: “The idea behind the new design was to ensure that members, customers and staff are at the heart of the in-branch experience and that the physical store wasn't just a place to book trips. It was designed to make interactions easy and inspire customers, whereby you could get information through digital tools or chat with the branch team in person, making it much more than just a travel agency.”

EXCLUSIVE: Co-Operative Travel makes a move in Lydney

By Simon Hacker | 14th August 2023

Lydney is to get a new travel shop with the Co-Op deciding to salvage and relocate its existing business in the wake of the supermarket's closure at Newerne Street.

Last May the store site went up for sale at a price of £1.5m , the move being a culmination of years of uncertainty for the Co-Op in Lydney. 

Although now closed, the food retailer continues to have a presence for shoppers in the town through its store and fuel station on Highfield Road.

Paving the way for the travel shop's new setting, Forest of Dean planners have backed a bid for three illuminated aluminium fascia signs, one internally illuminated small projecting sign and printed vinyl window graphics for the new address, which is positioned within the southern cap park of the Tesco store on Lydney's High Street.

A spokeswoman for the town's existing travel shop, which shared space with the recently closed store and has continued to trade while parent company MidCounties Coop oversees the move, said business was brisk.

She said: "Emerging out of the Pandemic and the effects of Brexit, people seem to prefer coming to sit down and talk to experts and because we are not tied to any holiday firms, we can find all sorts of deals and options. We are busy booking everything from cruises to UK holidays."

The new site for the business is within the Timpson building, close to the town's Tesco store.

Squeezed by budget competition from Lidl and Aldi, Midcounties Co-operative identified a small number of stores last year which, said the company, "in their current format do not fit with the long-term strategy of the Society". 

The ruling included the Lydney store.

● In May, Euronews reported that travel agents are "rising like phoenixes from the flames", with brands such as Trailfinders and TUI returning to high streets to meet demand for face-to-face advice.

Forest Pulse, meanwhile, provides out-of-school support and activities with children and young people with disabilities, while Gloucestershire Deaf Association aims offers practical and emotional support to children, young people and adults in the area who are deaf or hard of hearing.

The new branch, part of the Midcounties Co-operative, will be located at Hylton Court Shopping Centre in Lydney, Gloucestershire, featuring a new interactive map and digital screens for customers to scroll through the latest offers.

It is the second branch to feature the new format, following the relocation of the group’s newly designed Sutton Coldfield branch , which also has an interactive map and digital screens.

Sara Dunham, chief officer for travel and leisure for The Midcounties Co-operative, said: “The opening of our new branch in Lydney marks an exciting next step for our branch team, members and customers, and we’re looking forward to welcoming the local community through our doors.

“Not only does our new space include more digital and interactive features to inspire adventures across the globe, but with every new booking we’re helping to do good together by giving back to the local community through our charity and community partners.”

The new format has been designed in partnership with interior and design agency Twelve Studio.

The company, which was involved in the initial stages of the new branch design, said: “The idea behind the new design was to ensure that members, customers and staff are at the heart of the in-branch experience and that the physical store wasn’t just a place to book trips.

“It was designed to make interactions easy and inspire customers, whereby you could get information through digital tools or chat with the branch team in person, making it much more than just a travel agency.”

The shop, which has already opened, plans to give customers a chance to win £100 towards a holiday at its official launch with a special ‘Spin To Win’ wheel game.

Your Co-op Travel tote bags with holiday essentials will be handed out to customers who visit the branch for a holiday quote during the first week of trading while branded cupcakes and refreshments will be available at the official opening day event.

The branch, previously located on Newerne Street, will continue to place importance on supporting the community through the Your Co-op Travel Community Fund which offers £500 grants to local causes.

This year’s local charity and community partners include Gloucestershire Young Carers, Gloucestershire Deaf Association and Forest Pulse.

The agency has raised more than £30,000 up to now for Gloucestershire Young Carers, supporting more than 1,000 young people who care for family members who are ill or disabled.

This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.

Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.

If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email

Screen-reader and keyboard navigation

Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:

Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.

These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.

Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside it.

Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.

Disability profiles supported in our website

  • Epilepsy Safe Mode: this profile enables people with epilepsy to use the website safely by eliminating the risk of seizures that result from flashing or blinking animations and risky color combinations.
  • Visually Impaired Mode: this mode adjusts the website for the convenience of users with visual impairments such as Degrading Eyesight, Tunnel Vision, Cataract, Glaucoma, and others.
  • Cognitive Disability Mode: this mode provides different assistive options to help users with cognitive impairments such as Dyslexia, Autism, CVA, and others, to focus on the essential elements of the website more easily.
  • ADHD Friendly Mode: this mode helps users with ADHD and Neurodevelopmental disorders to read, browse, and focus on the main website elements more easily while significantly reducing distractions.
  • Blindness Mode: this mode configures the website to be compatible with screen-readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack. A screen-reader is software for blind users that is installed on a computer and smartphone, and websites must be compatible with it.
  • Keyboard Navigation Profile (Motor-Impaired): this profile enables motor-impaired persons to operate the website using the keyboard Tab, Shift+Tab, and the Enter keys. Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.

Additional UI, design, and readability adjustments

  • Font adjustments – users, can increase and decrease its size, change its family (type), adjust the spacing, alignment, line height, and more.
  • Color adjustments – users can select various color contrast profiles such as light, dark, inverted, and monochrome. Additionally, users can swap color schemes of titles, texts, and backgrounds, with over seven different coloring options.
  • Animations – person with epilepsy can stop all running animations with the click of a button. Animations controlled by the interface include videos, GIFs, and CSS flashing transitions.
  • Content highlighting – users can choose to emphasize important elements such as links and titles. They can also choose to highlight focused or hovered elements only.
  • Audio muting – users with hearing devices may experience headaches or other issues due to automatic audio playing. This option lets users mute the entire website instantly.
  • Cognitive disorders – we utilize a search engine that is linked to Wikipedia and Wiktionary, allowing people with cognitive disorders to decipher meanings of phrases, initials, slang, and others.
  • Additional functions – we provide users the option to change cursor color and size, use a printing mode, enable a virtual keyboard, and many other functions.

Browser and assistive technology compatibility

We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers).

Notes, comments, and feedback

Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs. There may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
