Key issues around accessibility raised during redesign feedback:

[ ] Colour/contrast issues (e.g. contrast too low, poor scheme)
[ ] Not appropriate for screen readers (e.g. missing header, alt tags or other semantic structure)
[ ] Font (e.g. size, family legibility issues)

Hi DW, This are good reports following the automated tools you have tested. I'll go a bit careful with reporting accessibility issues, I know we can do better in adding metadata. But what I've found is that this is not a check you can test against a testing engine. It might be a good idea to go over the TAB functionality and descriptive metadata. Ideas?

@agamba could you elaborate on 'TAB functionality'? I'm not familiar with the term...?

In terms of metadata... do you mean alt tags? The reporting tool picks up whether alt info is included, as well as whether descriptive (semantic) html tags are used.

In any case, this is more to flag an issue that we can ensure the redesign improves upon, rather than propose immediate documentation/improvement.
