newsfuri aims to make newsfuri.com usable on any device, in any browser and with any assistive technology. This statement sets out what has been done, which shortcomings remain and how to report a problem.
1. Our approach
We regard accessible pages as ordinary maintenance work at newsfuri rather than an additional feature. Every new page and every change to the design is checked to make sure the text remains readable, the navigation remains usable without a mouse and no information is carried by colour alone. The statement applies to newsfuri.com only.
2. Feedback
If you encounter a barrier on this website, or cannot obtain information that you require, please inform us by email at [email protected] or by telephone on 01743 358216. It helps if you identify the page, describe what happened and mention the browser or assistive technology you were using. We aim to respond within five working days.
3. Known limitations
Some pictures are general illustrations with a short alternative text rather than a full description.
4. Standards
We aim for conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at level AA. At present this site is only partially conformant: most content satisfies the guidelines, while the points listed below do not. Where a requirement cannot be met immediately, we look for another way of supplying the information.
5. What we do
Pages use semantic HTML: headings follow one order, lists are marked up as lists, and link texts stay meaningful out of context. Navigation and main content form separate regions, and the language of each page is declared for screen readers. Images that carry information have alternative texts, decorative ones are marked as such.
Text and background colours are combined to reach a contrast ratio of at least 4.5 to 1 for body copy, links and buttons. Because sizes are given in relative units, zooming or increasing the browser font size does not disturb the layout. The website can be operated with a keyboard alone.
6. Preparation of this statement
The present statement is dated 25 October 2026 and rests on a self-assessment carried out by newsfuri, not on an external audit. We examined the navigation, the contact form and the main page types ourselves, using a keyboard, browser zoom and a screen reader. We review the text once a year and whenever the website is rebuilt.
