Website Accessibility
Why does our site need to be accessible? An accessible website has a huge number of advantages - Blind users may utilise a screen reader which uses speech synthesis to read out a web site's content, valid and semantic XHTML design means that this will work the way that the software intends. Partially sighted visitors will need to increase the size of the text on your website and valid CSS design will be needed to allow this to happen. Deaf visitors and those with no mouse access along with web users with Colour Blindness and even Epilepsy are also considered.
