Last updated: May 2026
Our Commitment to Accessibility
At Speak Wonders Speech Pathology, we are committed to ensuring our website is accessible to everyone — including people with disabilities, those using assistive technologies, and families from all backgrounds and abilities.
We believe every family deserves equal access to information about our services. This includes parents and carers who may have visual, auditory, cognitive, or physical disabilities, as well as those accessing our website on mobile devices or with older technology.
Accessibility Standard
We aim for our website at www.speakwonders.com.au to conform to Level AA of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).
WCAG 2.1 defines how to make web content more accessible to people with a range of disabilities, including:
-
Visual impairments (low vision or blindness)
-
Hearing impairments
-
Physical and motor disabilities
-
Cognitive and learning disabilities
-
Speech disabilities
Our commitment to accessibility also aligns with the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 (Cth).
Accessibility Features
We have taken steps to ensure our website is as accessible as possible. These include:
-
Text resizing – Text on our website can be resized using your browser settings without loss of content or functionality
-
Colour contrast – We aim to maintain sufficient contrast between text and background colours to support users with low vision
-
Keyboard navigation – Our website can be navigated using a keyboard alone, without requiring a mouse

Known Limitations
While we strive to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA, some third-party content embedded in our website (such as booking tools, plugins, or external forms) may not fully conform to accessibility standards. These are managed by external providers, and we are not always able to control their accessibility features.
We are continually working to improve our website and address any limitations.
