Thank you for visiting the Partnerships in Care website.
Partnerships in Care takes pride in the accessibility of its website, and is committed
to ensuring that the Partnerships in Care website is accessible to everyone, including
individuals with disabilities. This site has been designed with a number of accessibility
features which are listed below.
If you have any questions regarding this Accessibility Policy, or if you have any
difficulties accessing content on our website or have trouble using any aspect of
the website, please do not hesitate to contact us.
STANDARDS COMPLIANCE:
We seek to meet the Priority A, AA, and selected AAA guidelines
of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. Our website is tested on a regular
basis using a combination of automated tools to identify potential problem areas
and manual testing to ensure we meet the spirit as well as the letter of the W3C's
accessibility guidelines.
LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES:
Please note that the Partnerships in Care website contains links to other Internet
websites. Those websites are not owned, operated, controlled or reviewed by Partnerships
in Care, and their webpages may not be fully compliant with our Accessibility Policy.
The Accessibility Policies of those websites, and not the Partnerships in Care Accessibility
Policy, define the accessibility features and any questions or concerns should be
directed to that website's owner.
ALTERNATIVE TEXT:
Images on our website have alternative text attributes, often known as alt text.
This means that when an image is used on a web page to convey information its content
is also described in the alt text. When you use alt text the image can be understood
by text browsers and assistive technologies such as screen readers. If an image
is used for simply decorative purposes, the text attribute for the image is left
empty in line with accepted best practice.
READABLE AND RESIZABLE FONTS AND LAYOUT:
The Partnerships in Care website uses font sizes that you can control using your
web browser.
You can also manually change the text size through your web browser.
To change the text size in Microsoft Internet Explorer select View > Text size followed
by your preferred text size from Smallest to Largest. The default setting is Medium.
You can change the text size in Mozilla Firefox and other Mozilla-based browsers
by selecting View > Text size followed by Increase or Decrease. To return the text
size to its default setting, select Normal.
The fonts on Partnerships in Care have been chosen for their legibility on computer
screens. The layout has been designed to stretch to fill the width of the browser,
so that you can resize the browser to suit your own viewing preferences.
MINIMISING THE USE OF IMAGES:
Live text is used rather than graphics wherever possible to reduce page download
time and to increase your control over text size.
