There are a few minor non-compliant things: banner images not having alt-text (a constraint of the Weebly web design package used), the Weebly logo footer having poor contrast against background and some PDF documents not having Alt-Text description of images, but these are not material to the use and content of the website.

Compliance status
This website is materially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.2 AA standard. A few minor, non-compliant items were found: -
- Banner images at the top of pages do not have Alt-Text descriptions of the images. These images are purely for aesthetic purposes and do not contribute to the content of the website.
- The Weebly logo at the foot of pages has poor contrast against the background. Preference would be to remove the logo but this is not possible, it does not contribute to the content of the website.
- Some PDF documents do not have Alt-Text descriptions of images.
