Accessibility

Accessible information and services

The Association is committed to providing digital information that can be perceived, understood, navigated and used across a wide range of devices and assistive technologies.

Accessibility standard

Designed with recognised guidance in view

The website is designed and maintained with reference to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, level AA. Accessibility is considered in content structure, language, keyboard operation, focus visibility, colour contrast, responsive layout, motion preferences, form labelling, status messages and media presentation.

Official documents and programme information are prepared in accessible formats wherever practicable. Where a specialist, historic or third-party format creates a barrier, an accessible alternative appropriate to the information and request is considered.

Implemented measures

Accessibility across the experience

Navigation

Keyboard and structure

Landmarks, headings, skip navigation, logical reading order and visible focus support efficient movement.

Presentation

Contrast and scaling

Text contrast, responsive layouts and relative sizing support enlargement and different screen widths.

Forms

Labels and feedback

Fields have explicit labels, requirements are identified and submission outcomes are announced.

Media

Motion and alternatives

Decorative motion is limited and the hero video is replaced by a still image when reduced motion is requested.

Language

Clear institutional English

Information is organised by purpose and uses consistent terminology with definitions where needed.

Review

Testing and remediation

Accessibility forms part of content, design and release review, with material issues prioritised for correction.
