Accessibility
Channel 5's Digital Media Group is committed to making its output as accessible as possible to all its users. In order to achieve this, we have implemented a series of design and editorial guidelines and introduced several features to improve accessibility for users with special needs and/or those using assistive devices.
These include:
Colour Schemes
All colour schemes are optimised for readability.
Scalable Text
Text size is scalable to allow users to increase or decrease font size depending on their requirements. (Note: some browsers do not support this option).
Document Structure
All of our pages follow a logical document structure to assist screen readers and other assistive technology.
Tab Indexes
All pages follow a logical tab index order to ease speed of navigation.
Alt Tags
All imagery is tagged with a title or description.
