Infographics and charts

Infographics and charts are rarely accessible, and we recommend that you avoid using them wherever possible.

Issues with infographics and charts

Infographics can be inaccessible due to their reliance on visual elements and text within images, making them difficult for people with visual impairments or those who use screen readers to access. The lack of text alternatives, poor font choices and complex layouts can also contribute to accessibility issues.

If you research how to make infographics and charts accessible, you will find several suggestions that are not possible for you to implement on platforms like T4 without the help of a developer (for example, ensuring keyboard navigation). We would recommend relaying the information in another way, such as through an accessible video or text summary.
