Accessibility Statement

Last Updated: 15 July 2025

We are committed to ensuring that our website is accessible to as many people as possible, including those with disabilities. We want every user to be able to access and use our content and services effectively, regardless of technology or ability.

Our Commitment

We aim to make our website meet or exceed the requirements of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA. This means that:

  • The site is designed to be navigable and readable using screen readers and assistive technologies.

  • Text is clear and easy to understand.

  • Colours and contrast are chosen for readability.

  • The site is responsive and works on various screen sizes and devices.

  • Users can navigate the site using a keyboard or other input devices.

What We’ve Done

To support accessibility, we have:

  • Used semantic HTML and proper heading structures

  • Provided alt text for images wherever appropriate

  • Ensured interactive elements (e.g. buttons, links, forms) are properly labelled

  • Tested the website using common assistive technologies and browsers

  • Avoided using colour alone to convey meaning

  • Ensured good contrast between text and background

  • Enabled keyboard navigation throughout the site

Areas for Improvement

While we strive for full accessibility, we recognise that some areas may still need improvement. We are actively working to address the following:

  • Ensuring all third-party content and embedded tools (including AI elements) meet accessibility standards

  • Improving accessibility for certain complex diagrams or visualisations generated by AI

  • Enhancing form validation messages to ensure clarity for screen reader users
