Accessibility Statement

Last updated: April 2026

Meridian17 is committed to making its website accessible to as many people as possible, including those with disabilities. We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA.

What we have done

In building this website, we have taken the following steps to improve accessibility:

  • Used semantic HTML elements to provide clear document structure
  • Provided descriptive alt text for all meaningful images
  • Ensured sufficient colour contrast between text and background colours
  • Made all interactive elements accessible by keyboard
  • Used clear, plain language throughout
  • Ensured the site works at different text sizes and zoom levels
  • Provided aria-labels on icon-only buttons and controls

Known limitations

We are aware of the following limitations and are working to address them:

  • Some PDF documents linked from this site may not be fully accessible to screen readers. We will work to improve this as we update our publications.
  • The website is currently available in English only. We hope to add language options in the future.
