• navigate most of the website using just a keyboard

• navigate most of the website using speech recognition software

• listen to most of the website using a screen reader (including the most recent versions of JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver)

We’ve also made the website text as simple as possible to understand.

Technical information about this website’s accessibility:

Langriville Parish Council is committed to making its website accessible in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.

Compliance status:

This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.2 AA standard, due to the non-compliances listed below.

Non-accessible content:

The content listed below is non-accessible for the following reasons:

• some graphics have text in, which fails WCAG 2.2 success criterion 1.4.5 (images of text)

How accessible our documents are:

Some of our documents are not fully accessible because they:

• are photocopies and cannot be read properly by screen readers

• are not tagged correctly (for example, they do not include proper headings)

• are not written in plain English

Content that is not within the scope of the accessibility regulations:

Some of our older PDF documents do not meet accessibility standards. We are working towards replacing as many PDF documents as possible with HTML web pages.

The accessibility regulations do not require us to fix PDFs or other documents published before 23 September 2018 if they are not essential to providing our services.

We are prioritising making PDFs accessible that:

• contain information on how users can access our service

• are most frequently downloaded

• contain information that has a statutory requirement

Our plan is to ensure that all essential PDFs are converted into an accessible format.
