Accessibility of this website
Jisc involve is a forum for people across the business to self-serve and provide updates directly to members and customers. While we support and educate users on creating accessible content, we expect that issues may arise in individual posts.
We conduct spot checks and flag issues with editors when identified.
We are aware that there are issues with the cookie consent banner – keyboard and non-mouse users cannot access the links or interactive elements. We are working on updates to the cookie banner and hope to have them resolved by the end of 2023.
This site is currently rated 90-100 for accessibility in Google’s testing tool Lighthouse.
