This accessibility statement applies to theCJJI website at https://www.justiceinspectorates.gov.uk/cjji/

We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. For example, that means you should be able to:

  • use browser settings or plugins to change colours, contrast levels and fonts
  • use browser settings or other software to zoom in up to 400% without the text spilling off the screen
  • navigate most of the website using just a keyboard
  • navigate most of the website using speech recognition software
  • listen to most of the website using a screen reader (including the most recent versions of JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver)

We’ve also made the website text as simple as possible to understand.

What we’re doing to improve accessibility

Our team reviews accessibility for all the websites built using this system and we aim to fix any issues we find.

Preparation of this accessibility statement

This statement was prepared on 15th October 2024. It was last reviewed on 15th October 2024. This website was last tested on 15th October 2024.

The test was carried out by the Website Builder Team. We carried out a basic review and not a full audit. The system used to produce the site (called ‘Website Builder’) has been audited in the past and all issues found then were fixed.

We used this approach to decide on a sample of pages to test – we tested all of the most common pages:

  • the home page
  • a page for each of the templates in use on the site
  • a navigation index page
