Accessibility Statement for Mid Wales My Way

 

Website: www.midwalesmyway.com
Owner: Powys County Council

 

Our commitment to accessibility

Mid Wales My Way is committed to making our website accessible to everyone. We strive to meet the requirements of the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018, which came into force on 23 September 2018. Our goal is to conform as closely as possible to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standard.

 

How accessible is this website?

Our website is built on the Wix platform, which includes many accessibility features such as:

  • Full keyboard navigation support

  • Compatibility with screen readers like NVDA, JAWS, and VoiceOver

  • Alternative text for most images

  • Logical heading structure on many pages

 

However, we have identified some areas that require improvement, including:

  • The website currently lacks a language declaration in the HTML document (lang="en"), which may affect how screen readers interpret the text.

  • Some older pages have inconsistent heading levels, which can make navigation confusing for assistive technology users.

  • ARIA landmarks, which help screen reader users quickly navigate to different parts of a page, are not fully implemented on older pages.

​​

We are actively working to address these issues to enhance your browsing experience.

 

What we're doing to improve accessibility

We're doing our best to try to fix the issues outlined above. We continually monitor the accessibility compliance of our site and improving our site is part of our mission.

  • We have controls in place to make sure that all new content published on the website complies with the accessibility regulations.
