"We intend to ensure that all components in Turas applications are derived from one source (the Turas style guide) and our aim is for that source to be fully accessible. "

Colin Sanders, Principal Lead (Experience)

Going forward

The style guide is not perfect. In parallel with implementing it on older applications we plan to continue to improve components with regards to accessibility and have these pushed out to replace existing components.

New components will also be introduced in an accessible format from now on.

Furthermore, we plan to continue the work we have started in creating contacts of users who can advise us and help us test the accessibility of specific journeys through applications.

Over the last year we have worked with screen reader users and sought advice from dyslexic members of NHS staff on the usability of prototypes and wireframes.

We want to continue and expand on this source of valuable information.
