Accessibility

Steady On Your Feet is committed to making our website accessible for as many people as possible. We want everyone to be able to use the website, regardless of technology or ability.

We regularly test for accessibility using both automated tools and manual checks, following the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 AA standards and the NHS Digital Service Manual.

This 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

We’ve designed our content to be clear, consistent, and easy to understand.

Accessibility tools and support

Your device or browser includes built-in tools that can make websites easier to use. For example, you can:

• increase text size or adjust colour contrast
• use screen readers or speech recognition software
• turn on captions for videos

You can find guidance and step-by-step instructions using AbilityNet: My Computer My Way, which offers free guides on accessibility settings for Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, and web browsers.

These tools can make it easier to view, hear, or navigate the website based on your needs.

How accessible this website is

We know that some parts of this website are not fully accessible yet:

• some older documents may not be compatible with screen readers
• some video content may not yet have full captions or transcripts
• some third-party tools or maps may not work fully with assistive technologies

We’re working to improve these areas over time.

What we’re doing to improve accessibility

We review accessibility regularly and test new features before release to make sure they meet at least WCAG 2.1 AA standards. We’re also improving older content and introducing more accessible formats where possible.
