Accessibility Statement

This website has been designed and built to be highly accessible to the widest possible range of people.

We believe every page on the site is compliant with WCAG 2 level AA, and goes some way towards level AAA compliance.

We also recognise that it is impossible for a set of generic guidelines to cover the specific needs of every individual, so if you encounter any specific problems using this site, please contact us, and we will make every effort to help you access our content.

This page summarises some of the key ways in which the site makes itself accessible. If you require a copy of the full WCAG compliance audit, please contact us.

Non-text content

All content such as images and text should have text alternatives.

Use of colour

We believe that all colour combinations used on the site offer sufficient contrast to be easily readable. If you find any combinations hard to read, you should be able to override our colour choices via your web browser and/or assistive technology.

Text size

We believe the chosen text sizes for this site are sufficiently large to be easily readable, and sufficiently distinct as to not be confusing. All text should be resizable in your web browser and/or assistive technology.

Keyboard navigability

The site has been built to be entirely keyboard-navigable. The first link on every page is keyboard-focusable and takes you to the site's main content, skipping all the navigation. To avoid cluttering the design, it is invisible until focused.

Errors and amends

The site was built with all the above principles and more in mind, and was audited to ensure compliance to an external set of guidelines, WCAG. For this reason, we believe the site to be very accessible. If you do discover something we have missed which is hampering your ability to access our content, then please contact us, and we will make every effort to rectify this.
