Accessibility features

• Every colour pairing meets WCAG 2.2 AA contrast, checked automatically on each build
• The site works without JavaScript. The eligibility checker needs it because it runs in your browser; when JavaScript is off, its content is listed in plain form
• Text can be enlarged without disrupting the layout and is presented as text rather than images
• Every interactive element is reachable and operable by keyboard, with a visible focus outline
• Headings follow a logical order to support navigation
• Non-Latin pages use the system font stack, keeping load times fast on mobile
• Animation is reduced when your device has the reduced-motion setting enabled

Known limitations

• The site has been tested internally but has not had an independent accessibility audit
• Government PDF documents linked from our guides are outside our control and may have accessibility limitations
