Access Welcome Guide

Explorium is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of ability, technology, or environment. We aim to ensure that our website is inclusive and usable for all visitors.

Accessibility Standards

This website complies with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).

In addition, the site has been reviewed using recognised accessibility testing methods, including manual testing and automated tools, to ensure both technical compliance and a good user experience.

What We’ve Done

We have taken a range of steps to ensure our content is accessible:

Semantic HTML is used throughout to support assistive technologies such as screen readers.
All images and non-text content include meaningful alternative text.
All interactive elements (links, buttons, and form controls) are operable using a keyboard alone.
Headings are structured in a logical and hierarchical order.
Colour contrast meets or exceeds minimum requirements for readability.
Form fields include accessible labels, instructions, and error messaging where applicable.
No content flashes in a way that could cause seizures or physical discomfort.
The website is regularly monitored using a combination of manual checks and automated accessibility tools.

Note: Skip to Content Link

A “Skip to content” link is provided at the top of the page to improve keyboard navigation for screen reader and keyboard users. This allows users to bypass repeated navigation and move directly to the main content.

Some automated accessibility tools may flag this element as being outside of a landmark region. This is expected and intentional, as placing the skip link before the main landmarks ensures it is encountered first by assistive technologies. No accessibility issues related to this element were identified during user testing.
