Compliance statement
This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1 AA standard, due to the non-compliances listed below.
The content listed below is non-accessible for the following reasons:
Some pre-recorded videos do not include captions in both English and Welsh. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.2.2. If you require a transcript of these videos, please contact us using the details below.
Some pre-recorded videos do not include audio description. This doesn’t meet WCAG 2.1 success criteria 1.2.5 Audio Description (Pre-recorded).
Live video streams do not have captions. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.2.4 (captions – live). We do not plan to add captions to live video streams because live video is exempt from meeting the accessibility regulations.
Content that’s not within the scope of the accessibility regulations
Live video: We do not plan to add captions to live video streams because live video is exempt from meeting the accessibility regulations.
To help us make this website a positive place for everyone, we follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1. These are the international standard for accessible websites and content and explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities, and user friendly for everyone.
We have taken an iterative approach to improving the accessibility of this site, improving elements based on regular checks and user feedback. Content is constantly changing, and we ensure new content is added according to the principles outlined.
We test for accessibility with Google Lighthouse and WebAIM WAVE tool. We also run periodic manual checks particularly when new pages, features or sections are added.
