We comply with WCAG 2.0 ‘A’ guidelines and, where possible, extend this to ‘AA’ and ‘AAA’ compliance. We also test this website with real people using screen readers and other assistive technologies. This way, we make sure that we continually improve this website so that everyone can use it.
All our printed publications are available in Braille, large print and as audio versions. If you’d like to receive a copy of any publications in these formats, please email us at info@sightsavers.org.
We’ve made our site as accessible as we can:
We use cascading stylesheets to our accessible website to control presentation, which means content is well structured and easy to access using assistive technology.
If we convey any information using images, infographics or videos, we provide a text desciption so it can be read by screenreaders and assistive technologies.
We’ve designed our pages and chosen our colours to make sure our designs don’t make things difficult for people who are colour blind.
We test our content against WCAG 2.0 accessibility and with real people to make sure it meets accessibility standards.
