Accessibility

In keeping with our accessibility focus and our obligations under the DDA, Comms-care will ensure that its web content is widely accessible to people who have visual, hearing, motor or cognitive impairments.

Accessibility is a partnership between agencies like Comms-care and the creators of the operating system, browser, and specialist assistive technologies which many disabled users employ to allow them, for example, to view websites in easier-to-read colours, with larger fonts, or as spoken text.

As such technologies have become more available and sophisticated, Comms-care will:

  1. ensure that its media work well with these assistive technologies to ensure an accessible experience for disabled users.
  2. work towards providing an Accessibility Help guide which will help users in customising their computers (either by explaining the accessibility features of their operating system or browser, or by introducing them to the range of assistive technologies which are available) to provide them with the most accessible web experience.
  3. Deliver web pages using XHTML strict and CSS that validates and conforms to W3C guidelines.
