Accessibility
We want this website to be usable by everyone. Here is what we have built in, and how to tell us when we can do better.
The site follows the settings you already have
There is no separate accessibility widget on this site. The settings on your phone, tablet or computer reach every page directly, so you set them once and they work everywhere, not only here.
- Larger text: use your browser's zoom (the aA menu in Safari on iPhone, the zoom control or Ctrl/Cmd and + on a computer) or the text-size setting in Chrome on Android. Every size on this site scales with it.
- Higher contrast: this site's text and backgrounds are already set for strong contrast. On Windows, your browser's own high-contrast (forced colours) mode overrides any website's colours automatically, this one included.
- Less motion: turn on "Reduce motion" and animations across the site stop.
What we have built into the site
We have aimed this website at the principles of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at level AA. We do not hold a formal accessibility certification or audit, but we have designed and tested toward these goals:
- If your device asks for reduced motion, the site honours it automatically.
- Text colours are chosen for contrast against their backgrounds.
- The layout adapts to phones, tablets and desktops, so nothing is cut off or trapped off-screen.
- Meaningful photographs carry alternative text; decorative graphics are marked so they do not add noise.
- Proper headings and page landmarks so screen readers can move through content in a sensible order.
- A skip-to-content link, a logical tab order and visible focus states so the site can be used without a mouse.
- Forms with visible labels on every field, and error and success messages written in plain words.
