Content that’s not within the scope of the accessibility regulations
PDFs and other documents
Some of our PDFs are not currently accessible, mainly those created in Word. We will do what we can to ensure new PDFs are accessible, however, as World Weather Attribution is not currently funded and all work is carried out on a voluntary basis, we may not have the resources to test all documentation. Links to file types that could be difficult for users of assistive technology will be clearly marked as such.
