Known and unavoidable problems

A) Font Awesome uses “i” or “<i>” for their code. This is unfortunately unavoidable. It naturally returns as an issue on AChecker (1).

B) Alt text for icons, functional or purely decorative aspects of this site: we have still added Alt text even if they are not required or duplicated on some pages. Some Alt text will naturally be duplicated without us knowing (1). This returns as an error on AChecker but could in fact be interpreted as incorrect/redundant. (2)

C) This website uses 3rd party plugins via WordPress. Most plugins are unfortunately not as accessible as we would like them to be and we will look for suitable alternatives should they be available.

References and reasoning

1) This site uses WordPress and some interactions with both WordPress, 3rd party plugins or editing can cause unforeseeable issues with this report. See A) above.

2) W3 Alt decision tree

3) This website will have multiple web editors and admin. Whilst every effort has been made to promote and maintain a high level of accessibility on our website, some aspects of the site will need revisiting regularly.
