In plain English

What this means for visitors

The scan found some issues on the website that might make it hard for visitors with disabilities to use. For example, some links don't have readable text, which can confuse screen reader users, and some buttons are too small to tap easily, which can be a problem for people with low vision or who use their keyboard only. To improve accessibility, fixing these link and button issues would be a good first step. Automated scans like this one catch many problems, but not all, so further review is also a good idea.

Findings

2 issue types found on the homepage

Each item is one failing rule; the count shows how many elements on the page trigger it. Severity follows axe-core impact levels.

#1MajorWCAG 2.4.44 elementsRule details ↗

Links have no readable text

Screen readers announce these links as just 'link', so people can't tell where they go. Common with icon-only links and 'read more' buttons.

Who it affects

Makes a task significantly harder (low contrast, links with no name, missing frame titles).

First fix

Give every link visible text, or add an aria-label describing the destination.

#2MajorWCAG 2.5.84 elementsRule details ↗

Touch targets are too small

Small links and buttons are hard to tap for people with motor impairments.

Who it affects

Makes a task significantly harder (low contrast, links with no name, missing frame titles).

First fix

Make clickable targets at least 24×24 CSS pixels or add spacing.

Severity guide

How to read the counts

Critical

Blocks a task outright for some visitors (for example an image-only flyer with no text, or a form field with no label).

Major

Makes a task significantly harder (low contrast, links with no name, missing frame titles).

Minor

Reduces clarity or consistency (heading order, landmarks, touch-target size).

What this grade does and does not cover

  • Covers: the public homepage only, loaded once in a desktop browser, tested with axe-core against WCAG 2.2 Level A and AA rules (a superset of the WCAG 2.1 AA standard in the DOJ rule).
  • Does not cover: inner pages, PDFs and documents, logged-in portals, video captions, alt-text quality, keyboard usability of custom widgets, or anything that needs a human judgment.
  • A grade is a monitoring signal, not a legal assessment or certification. How we score.
