The UK Neurodiversity Recognition Scheme is committed to ensuring that our website is accessible, usable and welcoming for everyone. We want people of all neurotypes and abilities to be able to access information, complete applications and engage with the scheme without unnecessary barriers.

ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT

UK Neurodiversity Recognition Scheme Last updated: 15.03.2026

Our Commitment to Accessibility

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 AA standard wherever possible. These guidelines help ensure websites are designed in ways that support a wide range of access needs, including those related to neurodivergence, sensory processing, mobility, vision and hearing.

To support this, we focus on:

Clear, plain-English content
Consistent layout and navigation
Readable fonts and colour contrast
Minimising unnecessary sensory load
Compatibility with screen readers and assistive technologies
Ensuring forms are simple and easy to complete

We recognise that accessibility is an ongoing process, and we are committed to continuous improvement.

How Accessible the Website Is

Most of the website is fully accessible, but we are aware of some areas that may not yet meet the highest standards:

Some older documents may not be fully optimised for screen readers.
Certain visual elements may not yet have full alternative text descriptions.
Third-party tools or embedded content may not always meet WCAG standards.

We are actively reviewing these areas and working to improve them.

If You Need Information in a Different Format

If you need any part of the website or scheme information in an alternative format, we are happy to help. You can request:

A text-only version
Large print
A simplified or easy-read version
A different file format
Support completing the application form

Please contact us at: info@ukneurodiversityscheme.com

Reporting Accessibility Issues

If you find any problems not listed on this page, or if something prevents you from accessing information or completing a task, please let us know. Your feedback helps us improve the experience for everyone.

Enforcement

If you are not satisfied with how we respond to an accessibility concern, you can contact the Equality Advisory and Support Service (EASS) for further guidance.

Ongoing Review

We review this Accessibility Statement at least once a year, or sooner if significant changes are made to the website or the scheme.
