ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT

This accessibility statement applies to One You East Sussex website: https://oneyoueastsussex.org.uk.

This website is run by Thrive Tribe. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. For example, that means you should be able to:

  • change colours, contrast levels and fonts
  • zoom in up to 200% without the text spilling off the screen
  • navigate most of the website using just a keyboard
  • navigate most of the website using speech recognition software
  • listen to most of the website using a screen reader (including the most recent versions of JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver)

 

We’ve also made the website text as simple as possible to understand.

My Computer My Way has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability, and the AT Hive can help you find assistive technologies that work for you.

ENFORCEMENT PROCEDURE

The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) is responsible for enforcing the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018 (the ‘accessibility regulations’).

TECHNICAL INFORMATION ABOUT THIS WEBSITE’S ACCESSIBILITY

Thrive Tribe is committed to making its website accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.

COMPLIANCE STATUS

The website has been tested against the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 AA standard.

This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.2 AA standard, due to the non-compliances listed below.

NON ACCESSIBLE CONTENT

The content listed below is non-accessible for the following reasons.

NON-COMPLIANCE WITH THE ACCESSIBILITY REGULATIONS

  • There are some consistent colour contrast issues across the website with white text on teal backgrounds. The Typeform answer text and text controls do not meet contrast requirements. This fails WCAG 1.4.3 Contrast (Minimum) (AA).
  • The Typeform icon controls do not meet contrast requirements. Testimonial carousel control focus indication does not meet contrast requirements. This fails WCAG 1.4.11 Non-text Contrast (AA).
  • On the Drink less page there is an infographic about what 14 units of alcohol look like. This image does not have an accessible alternative. This fails WCAG 1.4.5 Images of Text (A).
  • When viewing the page at higher magnifications a decorative separator normally present above the navigation links remains and drops down from the navigation bar to visibly obscure content on the page. This can disrupt the reading of some text. This fails WCAG 1.4.10 Reflow (AA).
  • The cookie banner is presented as the last element on the page meaning that users must move through the entire page before being able to make cookie choices. This fails WCAG 2.4.3 Focus Order (A).
  • Article tiles across several pages contain image links without accessible text names. The One You home link at the top of every page does not have an accessible text name. This fails WCAG 2.4.4 Link Purpose (In Context) (A).
  • Filter links present at the top of the Advice page do not receive focus indication. This fails WCAG 2.4.7 Focus Visible (AA).
  • When exiting the burger menu at higher magnifications, the user can navigate through main page content which is visually hidden behind the open menu. This fails WCAG 2.4.11 Focus Not Obscured (Minimum) (AA).
  • Article tile link elements are missing accessible text names and excluded from the tab order. This creates a conflict. This fails WCAG 4.1.2 Name, Role, Value (A).
