Text zoom
Up to 200 % without losing content or functions, with + and − buttons. Works together with browser zoom.
Accessibility of this site
A site for everyone, no exceptions.
We design and maintain this site to WCAG 2.2 level AA. Here you will find how to use it with a keyboard, a screen reader and the accessibility settings, and how to report a barrier.
Accessibility settings
Adjust how the site looks
The “Accessibility settings” button sits in the top menu next to the search on every page. Your choices are saved in the browser and apply across the whole site.
High contrast
Black background, white text and yellow accents with a contrast of at least 7:1, also for buttons and form fields.
Grayscale
Removes colours from the page — helps with colour and stimulus sensitivity.
Large cursor
An enlarged mouse pointer with a white outline, visible on any background.
Readable font
Letters and digits easier to tell apart, also with dyslexia.
Underlined links
Links are recognisable by an underline, not only by colour.
Readable spacing
Wider letter, word and line spacing as in WCAG 1.4.12.
Stopped animations
Turns off fading and scrolling effects; the system “reduce motion” setting is honoured as well.
Restore defaults
One button brings back the standard look.
Keyboard
Use it without a mouse
Every interactive element has a visible focus and works from the keyboard.
Tab and Shift+Tab
Move between links, buttons and form fields in a logical order.
Enter and Space
Activate links and buttons; arrow keys move inside select lists and menus.
Escape
Closes menus, dialogs and expanded panels; focus returns to the element that opened them.
“Skip to content” link
The first element after the page loads lets you skip the navigation.
Screen readers
A structure you can hear
We test the site with NVDA, VoiceOver and TalkBack.
Landmarks
Header, navigation, main content and footer are labelled landmarks.
Headings and lists
One H1 per page and a logical heading hierarchy; lists and tables carry proper semantics.
Image descriptions
Photos and graphics have alternative text; decorative elements are skipped.
Forms
Every field has a label, a hint and a clear error message linked to the field; submission status is announced.
Announcements
Changes on the page (e.g. turning contrast on) are announced in a live region.
Content language
Passages in another language carry a language attribute, which improves speech output.
Standard
What we check in every release
- Contrast of text and graphical elements of at least 4.5:1 (3:1 for large text and icons).
- Visible focus on every interactive element and no keyboard traps.
- The layout works at 320 px width, 400 % zoom and increased text spacing.
- Motion and animations honour “reduce motion” and can be switched off.
- Names, roles and states are exposed to assistive technology (ARIA only where HTML is not enough).
- Automated axe-core tests on public pages and panels plus a manual screen-reader protocol.
Known limitations
What we are still working on
- Report and certificate PDFs are generated as tagged PDF; older partner materials may lack full structure.
- Event recordings are published with captions; transcripts are added progressively.
- Content embedded from external providers (e.g. payments) follows their own accessibility rules.
