ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT

This website is run by Reclaim the Rain. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. For example, that means 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)

We’ve also made the website text as simple as possible to understand.

Text and background colours at specific points should have a contrast ratio of 4.5. In certain places this is 2.14 or 2.86. This fails WCAG 2.1 Section 508 (2017) AA.1.4.3.

Text and background colours at specific points should have a contrast ratio of 4.5. This fails WCAG 2.1 AAA 1.4.6.

Not all the colours on the body or a elements have been set. This fails WCAG 2.1 AA F24 Section 508 (2017) AA F24.
