Accessibility Statement

Making NUMAW.org accessible to everyone

At NUMAW, we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to access information, engage with our content, and use our website with dignity and independence, regardless of ability or the technology they use.

We are committed to improving the accessibility and usability of NUMAW.org so that our website can serve as many people as possible, including people with visual, hearing, motor, cognitive, and other disabilities.

Our Commitment to Accessibility

We aim to make our website inclusive, user-friendly, and accessible to all visitors. We recognise that accessibility is an ongoing process, and we are committed to identifying barriers and making improvements as our website evolves.

Our accessibility efforts focus on:

• Inclusive design: Making our website easier to navigate and understand for people with different abilities.
• Keyboard accessibility: Supporting visitors who navigate websites without a mouse, where functionality permits.
• Readable content: Using clear language, legible text, and well-organised page structures.
• Visual accessibility: Working towards sufficient colour contrast and avoiding reliance on colour alone to communicate important information.
• Assistive technology compatibility: Improving compatibility with screen readers and other assistive technologies.
• Accessible media: Providing appropriate alternative text for meaningful images and captions or transcripts for audio and video content where applicable.
• Responsive design: Supporting access across desktop computers, laptops, tablets, and mobile devices.

These are our accessibility goals, and individual features may vary across the website as improvements are implemented.

Accessibility Standards

We aim to align our website with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA, developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines provide internationally recognised recommendations for making web content more perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust. We recognise that achieving and maintaining accessibility requires regular testing, thoughtful design, and ongoing attention to the needs of people with disabilities. We therefore view accessibility as a continuing responsibility rather than a one-time task.

Using Our Website

To help make your experience more accessible, you may find the following options useful:

• Use your browser's zoom feature to enlarge text and page content.
• Navigate using your keyboard's Tab, Enter, Space, and arrow keys where supported.
• Use a screen reader or other assistive technology if it meets your needs.
• Adjust your device's accessibility settings to improve readability, contrast, or other display preferences.

If any part of our website is difficult to access or use, we welcome your feedback so that we can work towards an appropriate solution.

Known Limitations

Although we strive to make NUMAW.org accessible, some pages, documents, interactive features, or third-party content may not yet fully meet our accessibility goals. Accessibility can also vary depending on the device, browser, assistive technology, and external services being used. We are committed to reviewing reported barriers and prioritising improvements that help more people access our website and its information.

Feedback and Accessibility Assistance

Your feedback helps us identify problems and improve the experience for everyone. If you experience an accessibility barrier, encounter content you cannot access, or need information from our website in an alternative format, please contact us. When reporting an issue, it is helpful to include:

• The page address or URL where the problem occurred.
• A brief description of the accessibility issue.
• The device, browser, or assistive technology you were using, if known.
• Any alternative format or assistance you may require.

We will review your feedback and make reasonable efforts to respond and address accessibility concerns.

Continuous Improvement

We understand that accessibility is an ongoing commitment. As NUMAW.org develops, we will continue to seek opportunities to improve website usability, review accessibility barriers, and make our digital content more inclusive. Our goal is to ensure that people of all abilities can access the information and resources available through our website as independently and effectively as possible.

Thank you for helping us make NUMAW.org more accessible.
