Text alternatives

Where possible, we use text alternatives to describe the content of images.

Captions for audio

Where possible, we provide captions for our videos. In order to turn on captions for our videos (hosted by YouTube), press the play button and then navigate to the toolbar at the bottom of the video and click on "subtitles/closed captions" so that a red line appears under it.

Fair language

Fair language helps to avoid discrimination, exclusion, or prejudice that can be conveyed through the use of certain words or expressions. Therefore, we strive to use inclusive language in all of our communication even if it means using less formal language. For example, we address all of our customers with "first name", "last name" and will not ask for gender as it isn't relevant or necessary.

Other features

We have large, clear headings and clearly labelled links to ensure our content is easy to understand. Some of our pages also use "breadcrumbs", a secondary navigation scheme to help our users identify their location on a website.

We understand that accessibility is an ongoing process and are committed to continuous improvement. We regularly review our website to ensure that it meets accessibility standards and welcome feedback from our users. If you have any suggestions or encounter any accessibility barriers while using our website, please contact us at comms@flocert2023.brightminded.com so we can address the issue.
