Accessibility

This website is run by the web services team at the University of Wales Trinity Saint David. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. For example, that means on most pages on our website, 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 (including the most recent versions of JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver). 

How accessible this website is

We know some parts of our websites and services aren’t fully accessible, and we are doing our best to fix these issues.

• Some of our secondary brand colours do not have a sufficiently high contrast ratio.
• Some images are missing alternative text.
• Some documents, including documents in PDF format, are not yet fully accessible.
• Some of our online forms are difficult to navigate using just a keyboard.
• You cannot skip to the main content when using a screen reader.
