The Washington Exhibition is committed to creating an inclusive and accessible online experience for all visitors. We strive to ensure our website is accessible to people with disabilities and aligns with recognised accessibility standards.

ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT

Last updated: Sunday 4 January

The Washington Exhibition is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for all visitors. We are continuously working to improve the accessibility and usability of our website so that everyone, including people with disabilities, can access our content with ease.

What Web Accessibility Means

Web accessibility means designing and developing websites so that people of all abilities can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with online content. An accessible website allows users to engage independently, using assistive technologies where needed, and without unnecessary barriers.

Accessibility Adjustments on This Site

We aim to make our website accessible in line with recognised standards, including the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, at AA level where reasonably possible. Our efforts include:

Ensuring compatibility with assistive technologies such as screen readers and keyboard navigation
Using clear and consistent heading structures
Providing alternative text for images where appropriate
Maintaining sufficient colour contrast for readability
Setting clear language and logical content order across pages
Making multimedia content, such as images and videos, as accessible as possible

We regularly review the site to identify and address potential accessibility issues and continue to improve functionality and user experience.

Partial Compliance Due to Third-Party Content

Some areas of our website may include third-party content or platforms that are not fully under our control. Where this occurs, we may be unable to guarantee full accessibility compliance for those specific elements, and therefore declare partial compliance in these cases.

Accessibility Arrangements Within Our Organisation

The Washington Exhibition is committed to accessibility beyond our digital platforms. Where relevant, we aim to consider accessibility needs in our physical exhibitions, events, and programmes, and will make reasonable adjustments where possible to support inclusive participation.
