WEBSITE ACCESSIBILITY
What web accessibility is
An accessible site allows visitors with disabilities to browse the site with the same or a similar level of ease and enjoyment as other visitors. This can be achieved with the capabilities of the system on which the site is operating, and through assistive technologies.
Accessibility standards
All reasonable efforts are made to ensure that this website conforms to the minimum standards of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. These guidelines are the internationally recognised benchmark for building accessible websites.
In applying the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, this site aims to conform to the W3C standards for HTML and CSS. The standards are being applied so that our use of these technologies throughout the site supports accessibility. We have adapted this site in accordance with the guidelines, and have endeavoured to make the site accessible to the level of AA.
This site's contents have been adapted to work with assistive technologies, such as screen readers and keyboard use. As part of this effort, we have also:
-
Used the Accessibility Wizard to find and fix potential accessibility issues
-
Set the content order of the site’s pages
-
Defined clear heading structures on all of the site’s pages
-
Added alternative text to images
-
Implemented color combinations that meet the required color contrast
-
Reduced the use of motion on the site
