Accessibility statement
We want everyone to be able to read and use this website, including parents who are autistic, dyslexic, tired or using a screen reader.
The standard we aim for
We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA on every page.
What we have done
- Text is set in Atkinson Hyperlegible Next, a typeface made to be easy to read, at a comfortable size with high contrast.
- The site follows your device's light or dark setting, and you can zoom text up to 400% without losing content.
- Every page works with a keyboard, has a skip link, and uses headings in order so screen readers can jump between them.
- There are no pop-ups, no autoplaying video or sound, and animations are switched off if your device asks for less motion.
- Every guide starts with a short answer and key points, in plain English, and every term is explained in our glossary.
- Wide tables scroll inside their own box, so the page itself never scrolls sideways.
- Images have text alternatives, and pictures in our printables always have a written label.
What is not perfect yet
- Our printables are made to be printed. The PDFs are tagged for screen readers, but their layout is visual.
- Guides link to other websites, such as NHS and charity pages, which we don't control.
How we test
We check pages with automated accessibility testing and by using them with a keyboard, at phone and desktop sizes, in light and dark mode. We plan to test with disabled users, including autistic adults.
