Accessibility

Last updated: March 2025

Our Commitment

Westwood is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We continually improve the user experience for everyone and apply relevant accessibility standards to our website and deliverables.

Standards We Follow

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA where practicable. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities, including visual, auditory, motor, and cognitive.

Measures We Take

  • Structure and semantics: Using headings, landmarks, and lists so content is logical and navigable by assistive technologies.
  • Keyboard navigation: Ensuring core functionality is available and usable via keyboard.
  • Color and contrast: Using sufficient color contrast and not relying on color alone to convey information.
  • Text and images: Providing alternative text for images and ensuring text can be resized.
  • Forms and controls: Labeling form fields and providing clear error messages and instructions.

Assistive Technologies

Our website is designed to work with common assistive technologies such as screen readers, magnification tools, and voice control. We test with popular browsers and assistive software where possible.

Feedback and Contact

We welcome your feedback. If you encounter accessibility barriers on our website or have suggestions for improvement, please contact us using the information on our website. We will do our best to respond and address the issue in a timely manner.

Ongoing Efforts

Accessibility is an ongoing effort. We regularly review our content and design processes to identify and fix issues and to keep pace with evolving standards and technologies.
