Accessibility
The pattern uses only standard components from the GOV.UK Design System. This does not guarantee that your implementation of the pattern will be fully accessible: you must always do your own testing.
Because this pattern is built for users with access needs, it is particularly important that you test for accessibility in the context of your own service.
For more about building accessible services, see the DWP Accessibility Manual
WCAG success criteria
When testing, pay particular attention to the following WCAG success criteria:
- 1.3.1 Info and Relationships (A)
- 1.3.4 Orientation (AA)
- 1.4.3 Contrast (Minimum) (AA)
- 2.4.11 Focus Not Obscured (Minimum) (AA)
- 2.5.8 Target Size (Minimum) (AA)
