Renfrew Museum and Park is committed to ensuring that this website is accessible to the widest possible audience, including visitors with disabilities. This statement sets out the accessibility standard we work to, the current conformance status of the site, the limitations we are aware of, and how to contact us for assistance.
Standard
We work to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA. These guidelines define how to make web content more accessible to people with visual, hearing, physical, speech, cognitive, and neurological disabilities.
Conformance status
This website is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 Level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully meet the standard.
This website has been developed over a period of many years. Some older content, some documents, and certain third-party components do not currently meet Level AA. The limitations we have identified are listed below, and we are addressing them on an ongoing basis.
Known limitations
We are aware of the following limitations. This list is not exhaustive and is updated as issues are identified and resolved.
- Alternative text for images. A number of images do not have descriptive alternative text, which means their content may not be conveyed to people using a screen reader.
- Heading structure. On some pages, headings are absent or do not follow a sequential order, which affects navigation by page structure.
- Link text. Some links use non-descriptive wording, such as “click here” or “read more,” which may not be meaningful when read out of context.
- Form labels. Some form fields lack clear labels, which can make them difficult to complete using assistive technology.
- Embedded content. Some embedded maps and media lack descriptive titles, and some video content may not include captions or a transcript.
- Documents. Some downloadable documents, including PDF files, are not tagged for accessibility and may not be interpreted correctly by assistive technology.
- Third-party services. Certain features, including mapping, forms, event registration, and social media content, are supplied by external providers whose accessibility is outside our direct control.
Alternative formats and assistance
If you are unable to access any information or service on this website, we will provide it in an alternative format. We can supply information by telephone or email, or assist you directly with a registration, booking, or purchase.
