Our Commitment

We try to meet or exceed the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards to provide an inclusive and user-friendly experience for all visitors. Read below to learn what that means.

1. Accessible Design: We have designed our website with accessibility in mind, considering the needs of users with various disabilities.

2. Navigation: Efforts have been made to ensure easy navigation, with clear and consistent headings, labels, and logical tab order.

3. Alternative Text: All non-text content, such as images and multimedia, is provided with alternative text to ensure that users with visual impairments can understand the content.

4. Keyboard Accessibility: Our website is fully navigable using a keyboard, without relying on a mouse. Keyboard shortcuts and focus indicators are implemented for an improved browsing experience.

We recognise that accessibility is an ongoing process, and we are committed to continually improving the user experience for all visitors. Our team regularly reviews the website and updates content and features to enhance accessibility.

While we strive to make all content accessible, there may be instances where third-party content or applications may pose accessibility challenges. We are working to influence these partners to ensure greater accessibility.

Our website is designed to be compatible with commonly used assistive technologies, including screen readers, speech recognition software, and magnifiers.
