Our Commitment

Laois Tourism is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards.

It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. Laois Tourism is partially conformant with WCAG 2.2 level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard.

Non-accessible Content

The content listed below is non-accessible for the following reasons:

• Third-party applications: Some third-party applications integrated into our site are not fully accessible. Despite our best efforts, we cannot control the accessibility of these elements.
• Third-party plugins: The Web 2.0 Directory plugin is not and never will be fully accessible until the developers of that plugin update their code. We have tried as much as possible to make it compliant but it still has some shortcomings.
