Accessibility

We’re working to make the site as accessible as possible for visitors regardless of their ability, disability or general awareness of using the internet. 

It is our aim to create a public sector site that stands out as an excellent site to visit – not just an excellent public sector site.  The standard of service and design you expect shouldn’t be any less, simply because we’re a Local Resilience Forum and that’s something we feel strongly about.

The problem with trying to make a fully ‘inclusive site’ is that no single solution meets the needs of all users – and we’ve found that sometimes trying to improve the site for one particular disability can have an effect on our ability to meet the needs of another section of our audience. So while we do work to achieve all  World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) Version 1.0  'Double A' standard as a minimum, sometimes we may not have got quite there on some pages. 

We also try as much as possible to allow you to 'optimise your user experience' - put simply, let you view and use the Cheshire Resilience website the way you want to - not the way we make you.
