We want everyone to be able to use Breast Cancer Fitness, including people with a disability and people who are tired, unwell or reading on a small screen during treatment.
The standard we work to
We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA, the standard used for UK public sector websites.
What we’ve done
- Plain English, short paragraphs, clear headings and a short summary at the top of longer pages.
- Text and background colours chosen to meet WCAG contrast levels.
- Text can be enlarged to 200% in your browser without content being lost.
- The site works with a keyboard, with a visible highlight showing where you are on the page.
- Pages are structured with headings, lists and tables that screen readers can follow.
- Illustrations have text descriptions, and the information in them is also given in the text.
- The site works on phones and tablets as well as computers.
- Phone numbers for helplines can be tapped to call on a mobile.
Known limitations
- Some references and links go to other websites and PDF documents, such as research papers and NHS leaflets, which we don’t control and which may not be fully accessible.
- Tables that compare services can be wide. On a small screen, you may need to scroll sideways within the table.
If you find a problem that isn’t listed here, please tell us.
Tell us about a problem, or ask for another format
If you can’t use part of the site, or need information in a different format such as large print or plain text, email hello@breastcancerfitness.org.uk. Tell us the page address and what the problem is, and we’ll do our best to help.
How we test
We check the site with automated accessibility testing tools and by using it with a keyboard and at different screen sizes and zoom levels. We check new pages and changes to the site’s design in the same way.
Help with using websites
AbilityNet has free advice on making your device easier to use, for example by enlarging text, changing colours or having pages read aloud.
