Hello,
Looks like a conflict with another plugin. This file …
https://wokinghamlions.org.uk/wp-content/plugins/twentig/dist/css/twentytwentyone/style.css
… is overriding the setting with this css …
.tw-header-bg .site-header {
background-color: var(--header--color-background);
}
It is not wise to use multiple plugins to do the same thing as they will inevitably override each other as they will not be developed to work together.

Thanks, Oliver.
Firstly I’m interested to know how you were able to view the FTP for our site without the passwords.
Secondly, I don’t remeber why I added the CSS but I deleted it and it made no difference.
However, you gave me the clue of trying to find if any other plug-in was the cause and I identified to error id sue to the tewntig plug-in. When I disabled it the header color can be set.
I’m investigating to see what features of twentig are affecting the website

Twentig adds numerous features used in our website, such as the ability to selectively change text colours. It’s unfortunate that won’t work with the features added by Options for Twenty Twenty-one. Is there any workaround?
We have not viewed anything on FTP. If you look in the console of your browser you will see what files are being loaded to render your website.
We don’t develop our plugins to work with similar, 3rd party plugins because they are not intended to be installed together and we cannot possibly be expected to allow for these eventualities where they are installed together as the combinations and permutations of different setups would be far too many to quantify let alone mitigate against.
That being said you can use some CSS to do what you want which (looking at your site today) looks like what you have already done.
