Accessibility

This website is meant to work for everyone who needs it. Here is what that covers and where it may fall short.

What we aim for

The target is the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA. In practice that means:

  • Every page works with a keyboard alone, and you can always see where you are on the page.
  • Text can be enlarged to 200%, and pages fit a narrow screen without sideways scrolling.
  • Text and controls have strong colour contrast, and colour is never the only way information is shown.
  • Pages use proper headings and landmarks, so screen readers can move around them.
  • The one animation on the site is switched off if your device asks for reduced motion.
  • The site needs no JavaScript and loads nothing from other companies, so it stays fast on slow connections and older devices.

Known limits

This site has been checked by its developer using an automated accessibility scanner, scripted checks and manual review in a desktop browser. It has not yet been audited by an independent accessibility specialist, or tested with people who use screen readers and other assistive technology every day.

Links to other organizations’ websites lead to pages this site does not control.
