Accessibility Statement

1. Our Accessibility Approach

The website is designed with attention to:

• Clear content hierarchy
• Readable typography
• Strong text and interface contrast
• Keyboard-friendly navigation
• Descriptive links and buttons
• Responsive layouts for desktop, tablet and mobile
• Alternative text for meaningful images
• Support for screen readers and assistive technologies
• Visible focus states
• Reduced-motion preferences

Active Minds continues to review and improve the accessibility of the website as content and functionality evolve.

2. Keyboard Navigation

Interactive elements should be accessible using a keyboard.

Visitors should be able to:

• Move through links and buttons using Tab
• See a visible focus indicator
• Activate buttons and links using the keyboard
• Close modal windows using Escape where relevant
• Navigate without encountering a keyboard trap

3. Images

Meaningful images should include descriptive alternative text.

Purely decorative images, lines, shapes and background elements should use empty alternative text or be hidden from assistive technology.

4. Motion and Animation

The website may include subtle decorative motion and hover effects.

The website should respect the CSS prefers-reduced-motion.

When reduced motion is requested:

• Decorative background motion should stop or be significantly reduced
• Parallax should be disabled
• Card movement should be removed or simplified
• Content should remain fully visible and usable

Important information should never depend on animation.

5. Videos and External Content

The website includes embedded third-party media.

Standard playback controls and accessibility features may depend partly on the external provider.

Where available, visitors may use captions, subtitles, playback speed and fullscreen controls provided by the external platform.

6. Responsive Display and Zoom

The website is designed to work across:

• Desktop computers
• Laptops
• Tablets
• Mobile devices

Text and functionality should remain usable at increased browser zoom.

7. Known Limitations

Some historical media, third-party content or external platforms may not fully support every accessibility preference.

Active Minds continues to improve the website and welcomes reports of specific accessibility difficulties.
