2. What We Do to Ensure Accessibility

We take the following steps to support the accessibility of our website:

• Semantic HTML: We use proper heading structure, landmarks, and HTML elements to ensure content is well-organised for screen readers
• Keyboard Navigation: All interactive elements on our website can be accessed using a keyboard
• Colour Contrast: We ensure text and interactive elements meet minimum colour contrast ratios
• Dark Mode: A dark colour theme is available to reduce eye strain and improve readability for users who prefer it
• Responsive Design: Our website adapts to different screen sizes, devices, and zoom levels
• Alternative Text: We provide descriptive alternative text for images where appropriate

3. Known Limitations

While we strive to meet WCAG 2.1 AA standards across our website, some areas may not yet be fully accessible:

• Third-Party Content: Some embedded content from third-party services (such as donation forms and live stream players) may not fully meet accessibility standards, as they are managed by external providers
• PDF Documents: Some downloadable documents may not be fully accessible to screen readers. If you need information from a PDF in an alternative format, please contact us
• Maps: Embedded Google Maps on our centre pages may have limited accessibility. Full addresses are provided in text alongside all maps

We are actively working to identify and resolve accessibility issues across the site.

4. Assistive Technologies

Our website is designed to be compatible with the following assistive technologies:

• Screen readers (such as NVDA, JAWS, and VoiceOver)
• Screen magnification software
• Voice recognition software
• Keyboard-only navigation
