Accessibility statement

Accessibility

The site is designed with WCAG 2.2 level AA as its goal. This is a target, not a certified level of conformance; no formal audit has been carried out.

Measures in place

  • Semantic page structure with a logical heading order.
  • A skip link and full keyboard navigation, with visible focus indicators.
  • Text and background colours chosen for strong contrast.
  • Correct language and text direction for English (left to right) and Arabic (right to left).
  • Layouts that adapt to narrow mobile screens and to text zoom.
  • Reduced motion when your device requests it.
  • Descriptive alternative text for meaningful images.

Known limitations

The site has not yet been tested with a wide range of assistive technologies or by disabled users. Some Arabic and English pages may differ slightly in length, which can affect layout.
