You should be able to:
- navigate most of the website using just a keyboard
- navigate most of the website using speech recognition software

Non-accessible content
Where possible, and for all our published reports, we make documents accessible by providing them in a suitable accessible HTML format. Please note that due to user feedback, our reports are also made available in less accessible alternative formats, for example PDFs.
- In some PDFs there are missing tags on the first and last cover pages. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.3.1
- Images, diagrams and flow charts on some PDF pages do not always have suitable image descriptions. Users of assistive technologies may not have access to information conveyed in images. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.1.1
- There are some infographics which do not have sufficient colour contrast. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criteria 1.4.3. We are working towards ensuring all future publications have sufficient colour contrast.
