We commit to ensuring the communications we produce are clear and accessible to the widest range of people. We recognise our obligations under The Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018 and the Equality Act 2010.

Web standards and technologies

We’re working hard to make the website conform to level AA of the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1). We recognise we have more work to do to achieve this. We are currently using the Bookstack platform to display our content but we are looking to move our content to an alternative, more accessible platform. This process is expected to take 18 months.

Known limitations

It has not been possible to ensure that the website meets WCAG 2.1 (AA) at the current time because:

We are working to meet the compliance as specified in The Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018 where currently possible.

How we tested this website

Testing was done in-house and used a mixture manual testing and automated testing tools. This includes the use of the Web Accessibility Evaluation Tool (WAVE) and the Accessibility Insights for Web browser extensions. We also referred to the success criteria included in the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 and guidance for doing a basic accessibility check from gov.uk

We acknowledge that automated tools may not detect all accessibility issues but at this time it has not been possible to test the site with disabled users.
