Compliance status

This website is compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.2 AA standard and any non-compliances and exemptions are listed below.

Non-compliance with the accessibility regulations:

There are currently no areas of non-compliance following an audit of a selection of pages.

Other items which may affect the accessibility of this website include:

  • PDFs
    • The structure of the content is not always available to assistive technology, which makes the content difficult to understand and navigate for users of screen readers (WCAG Info and relationships 1.3.1)
    • The reading order of the content is not always logical, which means some content does not make sense when read out by text-to-speech software (WCAG Meaningful sequence 1.3.2)
    • Images do not always have text alternatives, which means some content is not available when using text-to-speech software (WCAG Text alternatives 1.1.1)
  • Embedded YouTube videos

Content that is not within the scope of the accessibility regulations

PDFs and other documents

Some of our older PDFs may not meet accessibility standards. The accessibility regulations do not require us to fix PDFs or other documents published before 23 September 2018 if they’re not essential to providing our services. We do have plans to remove or replace some of the PDFs with more accessible content alternatives. Wherever possible, we avoid PDFs. Instead, we create content as structured web pages in HTML.

Videos

Some of our older videos may not meet accessibility standards because they do not have captions. The accessibility regulations do not require us to fix videos published before 23 September 2020. We are actively working to add captions to the most popular older videos.

From external websites 

Some parts of this site link to or use content provided by other websites and we cannot guarantee that these resources are fully accessible.

Preparation of this accessibility statement

Our website’s accessibility status is reviewed on a regular basis.

We have tested the homepage, and a random selection of  content pages and custom pages (searches, custom functionality) by checking the following:

  • Change colours, contrast levels and fonts.
  • Zoom in up to 400% without the text spilling off the screen.
  • Navigate most of the website using just a keyboard.
  • Navigate most of the website using speech recognition software.
