Accessibility

This accessibility statement applies to actorschildren.org

This website is run by The Actors’ Children’s Trust. 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 300% 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 tried to make the website text as simple as possible to understand, within the constraints of the subject matter.
  • AbilityNet has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.

We’re always looking to improve the accessibility of this website. If you find any problems not listed on this page or think we’re not meeting accessibility requirements, contact us.

Compliance Status

To help us make the ACT website a positive place for everyone, we’ve been using the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities, and user-friendly for everyone.

The guidelines have three levels of accessibility (A, AA and AAA). We’ve chosen Level AA as the target for the ACT website.

We’ve worked hard on the ACT website and believe we’ve achieved our goal of Level AA accessibility across the majority of the site. We monitor the website regularly to maintain this, but if you do find any problems, please get in touch.
