Accessibility

We want this guide to be usable with a keyboard, with a screen reader, at full zoom or on a small screen, without anything getting lost along the way. This page sets out the choices we have made and the points we still need to work on.

Our accessibility choices

  • The whole site can be navigated by keyboard: the "Skip to content" link lets you jump past the menu, focus is always visible, and open panels (mobile menu, dropdowns, FAQs) close with the Escape key.
  • The pages use semantic HTML: a single main heading, subheadings in hierarchical order and landmarks that assistive technology can recognise.
  • Every informative image has its own alternative text.
  • Text colours meet the AA contrast ratio in the WCAG guidelines, checked directly against the project's own colours.
  • Browser zoom is never blocked, and the layout reflows at any screen size.
  • If your device has the "reduce motion" setting turned on, the site switches off animations and smooth scrolling.

The limits we know about

  • The alternative text on some of the mural photographs is still fairly basic.
  • The interactive map on the Getting Here page is hard to explore with a screen reader; that is why the car park addresses are always written out in the text as well.
  • In the navigation bar, white text on the coral background does not reach AA contrast.
  • The collapsible FAQs need JavaScript to be enabled.
  • The site has not yet been through a full formal WCAG audit.

Help us improve

If something stopped you, whether it was an element you could not reach, text you could not read or a control that would not respond, tell us about it at info@borgosangiuliano.it. Every report is read and used to put the site right.
