Accessibility Statement

We want everyone who visits this website to feel welcome and to find the experience rewarding.

What Are We Doing?

To help us make this website a positive place for everyone, we've been using the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities as well as more user friendly for everyone.

The guidelines have three levels of accessibility (A, AA and AAA). We've chosen Level AA as the minimum target for this website.

We have built accessibility into this website by design.

We also train our staff, set targets and assign responsibilities relating to the accessibility of this website. We also employ quality assurance methods that take into account accessibility.

How Are We Doing?

We've worked hard on the website and believe we've largely achieved our goal of Level AA accessibility. We monitor the website regularly to maintain this, but if you do find any problems, please do tell us. We want to remediate any issues we can.

How We Evaluate Our Website's Accessibility

We self-evaluate our website's accessibility using a series of automated tests supplemented by manual reviews to ensure conformance with the WCAG 2.2 Accessibility Guidelines.

We regularly test sample pages to ensure we maintain the high standard we have set.

We believe that this website substantially conforms to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA and we continually review it to maintain that standard. We are not currently aware of any critical conformity issues, but we welcome any feedback, which we will respond to as soon as we can.
