Accessible to everyone

Accessibility Statement

Dyslexia.tech is about technology that helps people work differently, so we want this website to be accessible to as many people as possible.

Our aim

We are designing and building the site to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA. We have not yet had the site independently audited, so we cannot say it fully conforms. Please treat this as our target, not a guarantee.

What we have done

  • Clear headings, plain language and a consistent layout and navigation on every page.
  • A "Skip to main content" link and a clear focus outline for keyboard users.
  • Text and background colours chosen for strong contrast, with the Poppins typeface for body text.
  • Labelled form fields, and status messages that screen readers announce.
  • Layouts that adapt to phones, tablets and larger screens, and that work when text is enlarged.
  • Decorative images and shapes hidden from screen readers.

The accessibility bar

Every page has an Accessibility tab on the right of the screen (a round button at the bottom of the screen on phones). It lets you:

  • Have the page, or text you select, read aloud, with pause, stop and speed controls.
  • Make text smaller or bigger.
  • Switch to an easy-read font and add more spacing between lines, letters and words.
  • Use high contrast, highlight links, show a reading guide line and stop animations.

Your choices are saved on your own device and are not sent to us. The bar helps you adjust the page. It does not replace a screen reader or your own device settings, and read aloud uses your browser's own voice, so it may not be available in every browser.

Known limitations

  • We have not yet tested the whole site with a full range of assistive technologies.
  • The accessibility bar's text size option may not behave the same way in every browser.
  • Some pages are still being written, and new content will be checked as it is added.

Tell us about a problem

If you find something hard to use, or you need information in a different format, please tell us using the enquiry form on our Consultancy & Training page. Say which page and what happened, and we will do our best to put it right.
