Measures to support accessibility
Pendragon takes the following measures to ensure accessibility of our websites:
- Include accessibility as part of our mission statement.
- Include accessibility throughout our internal policies.
- Appoint an accessibility officer.
- Provide continual accessibility training for our staff.
- Assign clear accessibility goals and responsibilities.
Conformance status
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA.
Our goal is to meet and exceed WCAG 2.1 Level AA. We also aim to ensure Voiceover/Narrator screen-readers are fully supported and function as intended.
Currently only our Pendragon “brochure” website (www.pendragon.co.uk) is conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA and fully supports a screen reader.
Our Perspective Web App (perspective.info) is conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA and fully supports a screen reader.
