The site as is uses a dark theme (white text on a dark background). While the color combination for the text (white #ffffff and dark blue #1E2E37) passes the accessibility contrast test (https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/), it is by nature harder for humans to read than traditional dark text on a light background. I can see several options. This simplest solution would be to increase the size of the body copy from 1rem to 1.15 or 1.2 rem. This would increase the legibility of the smaller copy throughout the site. The other option would be to rebuild the site with an eye towards a light theme with light backgrounds and dark text. The second option would be a much more time consuming task.
