Our Commitment to Accessibility
At the Sainsbury Museum and Art Centre, we want everyone to be able to access and enjoy our website easily. Below, you’ll find information on how we intend the site to be accessible to everyone, including users with disabilities. This site was built in 2019, reskinned in 2026 and we are working towards making it fully accessible.
Our aims
We aim to make our website usable for as many people as possible, which means you should be able to:
- Navigate most of the website using only a keyboard
- Use speech recognition software to interact with the site
- Listen to most of the content using a screen reader (JAWS, NVDA, or VoiceOver).
- Access our downloads and resources
- Access our website on a mobile device using the in-built access features
We also strive to make our writing as clear and simple as possible. If you need advice on making your device easier to use, AbilityNet offers helpful resources.
Known issues on our website
- The search function on the website is not working as it should, we plan to take it off as soon as possible.
- We have the no script elements on the website that might cause troubles to people who don’t have java script enabled.
- When you are using a keyboard, it is difficult to see where you are on the page because the links do not change their appearance.
- Some of the links on our website contain no text, this can introduce confusion for keyboard and screen reader users. We are working with our developers to address this.
- Some of our forms aren’t labelled properly and this can be difficult for screen readers. We use ReCAPTCHA and this can cause a missing form label error. We use ReCAPTCHA to prevent spam emails getting sent through our web forms.
- In some places we have used heading tags in the code of the site for design purposes. This can be misleading or confusing and we are working to address this in the long term.
- Some text on our website isn’t high enough colour contrast to meet 2.2 AA standards. We are working to make sure that all colour contrast issues are fixed in the coming months.
- There are multiple PDFs and resources on our website that you may not find accessible, please reach out to us if you would like an alternative version of the document. We are working to create accessible versions as we go.
Feedback
We welcome feedback on our website. If you experience any issues with our website or have suggestions for improvement, please contact us at scva@uea.ac.uk.
We will aim to get back to you within 3-5 days.
