Guardian Professional aims to provide a website that is accessible to the widest
possible audience - regardless of ability or browsing technology and including those
who have visual, hearing, motor and cognitive impairments. The site aims to achieve
overall compliance with the Web Accessibility Initiative's (WAI) guidelines to at
least single A standard. However where possible we have tried to ensure that the
site meets double A (AA) standards.
