ACCESSIBILITY POLICY

The Concern Fast site has been designed to be easy-to-use, regardless of browser. Attention has also been given to accessibility for people with disabilities.

The site’s layout takes into account users who are blind, or visually impaired, by providing the option of skipping the navigation and using clearer menus.

If users have difficulties using a mouse, the site can be navigated using a keyboard only.

Easy reading

The content has been written and formatted to make it accessible by using headings, short sentences, meaningful links and keyboard navigation. We also aim to use clear concise language.

Images and information

Alternate text is used for all images. Additionally, the colour composition of pages has been checked using www.vischeck.com. Particular care has been taken with images that include text.

We try, where possible, to accompany other forms of media such as video, audio files and Flash with a clear alternative version in text.

Development process

We reviewed the RNIB, Mencap, and RNID websites for best practices in accessibility. During development, the Fast site has been reviewed to ensure these best practices and specifications are met.

These specifications will be reviewed annually to ensure concernfast.org continues to be compliant with the latest standards. User feedback will also form part of this review.

Standards and specifications

This site complies with the latest web specifications, including XHTML 1.0 Strict and CSS 2.1.
