Accessibility Statement

We want Phenomenal Bodies to be accessible to everyone. This statement applies to the Phenomenal Bodies website. It was first published on 1 August 2025.

Website

We want everyone to be able to use this website, including people with a range of access needs.

We aim to use clear, easy-to-understand language and have designed the site to work with a variety of assistive technologies, such as screen readers and speech recognition software.

For example, you should be able to:

  • Zoom in up to 300% without losing content or functionality
  • Navigate most of the site using only a keyboard
  • Navigate the site using speech recognition software
  • Listen to the content using screen readers, including the latest versions of JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver

If you find anything that doesn’t work as expected, please let us know.

For further advice on how to make your device easier to use if you have a disability then please visit: AbilityNet 

We aim to make sure our website meets the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1 AA standard.

We use AltText.ai to help create clear and accurate alt text for images on our website. This helps ensure that people using screen readers and other assistive technologies can understand and engage with visual content.

If you have any questions or feedback about the accessibility of our website, please get in touch with us using our Contact Us form. We welcome your input.

Online and In-person Events

Associated Online and In-person Events are run independently of Phenomenal Bodies. However, we do encourage organisers to ensure they make their events as accessible as possible for all attendees.

Visiting us in person

We recognise that the physical layout of the School of Art History building does not meet full accessibility standards. We are committed to ensuring that this does not create barriers for staff, students, or visitors.

To support accessibility, we will make reasonable adjustments, including:

  • Offering online meetings as an alternative to in-person attendance
  • Supporting remote working arrangements where needed
  • Providing accessible venues for any in-person meetings, including consideration of both location and available facilities

Our Commitment to Accessibility

We are continually working to improve accessibility across our website. This includes regularly reviewing and updating our content to meet current accessibility standards, so that it is usable and inclusive for as many people as possible.

Feedback and contact information

We are committed to improving the accessibility of this website and welcome your feedback.

If you experience any issues that are not mentioned on this page, or if you believe we are not meeting accessibility requirements, please let us know.

You can contact us using the information provided on our Contact Us page. We’ll do our best to respond promptly and address your concerns.
