Annual report for Kidney Research UK

Brief

To design Kidney Research UK’s annual report for 2023/24 in accessible PDF format. The opening section would also be printed as their Impact Report.

Response

The design of Kidney Research’s publications is lively and vibrant – something I wanted to retain while ensuring the ease of reading and use essential to visual accessibility.

During remediation, I reviewed both reading orders and remediated the extensive financial tables. I also implemented a solution for the occasional use of white text to allow it to remain readable on reflow.

Finally, I ensured that the PDF passed PAC24 programmatic checks for PDF/UA compliance and read correctly in the NVDA screen reader.
