Accessibility of touch.boards.ie

Hope alright to post this here

I have noticed some changes in the touch version of the site over the last day or so, and not for the better unfortunately. I use the site with my iphone with voice over which is the built in screen reader as I am totally blind. Previous to this it was extremely accessible, apart from the fact that I could not post anonomously due to captchas which i was told would be worked on. anyway, now there is a bit of an accessibility issue
When I am browsing the site, there are a few links which are now not labeled. I can browse because I know what the link should be because it was labeled before, but if I were a new member with this problem I would not be able to get around the site so just wondering if this can be fixed?
Thanks and hope was okay to post this here

Hi,

It's perfectly fine to post here. Can you please describe the links that used to be labelled but are not now - is it the reply button? the page changing buttons? Or perhaps it's something else - please let us know and we'll try getting them labelled to restore accessibility.

hi
Apologies for not posting again before now, I have been away for a few days, and left my bt keyboard here so couldn't post.
It is the "browse forums" link which is not labeled. not sure if this is the exact text of the link, but something like this.
Hope it can be resolved, and thanks for being open to feedback re accessibility

Hi Afterglow,

We've updated the header of the touch site so the link to Browse Forums should be labelled - can you confirm? Is there anything else that you think would help the accessibility of touch?

Hi
Again apologies for not writing before now. The link works great thanks. Also the home page link is now labeled which is fantastic.
Thanks so much for resolving this issue. Site is now fullly accessible again
