Accessibility revisions to the corporate site

Accessibility revisions to the corporate site

It’s been a week since we released version 7 of our corporate website, and in that time we’ve had a number of interesting bits of feedback.

The main bulk of comments has been on the accessibility, and so we’ve spent time changing things to improve. For example, the ‘display’ property is no longer used to hide content, as the technique wrecked the experience for screen–reader users.

We’ve also made changes to various alt–texts, added or changed summaries and captions, and in general polished up the site.

Hopefully we’ve done well!
