Accessibility statement

We want everyone to be able to find an event, book a place and take part. This site and the event management system are built to meet WCAG 2.2 level AA.

What we have done

  • Every page works with a keyboard alone, with a clear focus indicator.
  • Text and interface colours meet AA contrast in light and dark appearance.
  • Pages reflow to one column on small screens with no loss of functionality.
  • Forms have proper labels, helpful hints and errors written in plain words.
  • Headings follow a logical order and a skip link jumps straight to the content.
  • Animation is reduced when your device asks for reduced motion.
  • Text can be resized to 200 per cent without content being cut off.

Known limitations

  • Documents uploaded by event organisers may not always meet the same standard. Ask the organiser for an accessible version and we will help.
  • Embedded videos rely on captions provided by the organiser. Tell us if a video is missing captions and we will chase it.

Requirements at an event

Every booking form has a field for accessibility requirements. Anything you write there goes to the organiser making the arrangements, and nowhere else.
