In plain English
The scan found issues that may cause problems for visitors with disabilities, such as screen reader users who rely on proper coding to navigate the site. To improve accessibility, start by fixing the critical issues, like missing parts in interactive elements and list items outside a list. This will help ensure that all visitors, including those with low vision or who use keyboard-only navigation, can access the site's information. Automated scans like this one catch many issues, but not all, so further review is recommended.
