Accessibility

1. Accessibility Commitment

Investate is committed to making our website accessible and usable for all visitors, including people with disabilities.

2. Accessibility Standards

We aim to align with recognised accessibility standards, including WCAG 2.1 Level AA, and to improve accessibility as the website evolves.

3. Measures We Apply

• Semantic page structure and clear heading hierarchy.
• Keyboard-accessible navigation where possible.
• Alt text for meaningful imagery.
• Readable text contrast across key content sections.
• Responsive layouts designed for zoom and different viewport sizes.

4. Ongoing Improvements

Accessibility is an ongoing programme. We regularly review templates, content components, and interaction patterns to improve usability and reduce barriers over time.

5. Known Limitations

Some legacy pages, embedded third-party tools, or externally hosted content may not fully meet target accessibility standards at all times.

6. Compatibility

Our site is designed for modern browsers and assistive technologies. Performance may vary on outdated browsers, unsupported extensions, or custom device configurations.

7. Requesting Alternative Formats

If you need content in an alternative format, contact us and we will make reasonable efforts to provide an accessible equivalent where possible.

8. Feedback and Escalation

If you encounter an accessibility barrier, please email contact@investate-uk.org with details of the issue and the page URL. We aim to review issues promptly and prioritise high-impact fixes in our release cycle.

9. Statement Updates

This statement may be revised as standards, tools, and website functionality evolve. The latest version is always published on this page.
