Access for All

We have made every effort to make the NWDA website accessible and easy to use for everyone, no matter what browser you choose to use and whether or not you have any disabilities.

This website conforms to the UK Government guidelines for websites.  It follows the Worldwide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0, meeting all level AA checkpoints. We also endeavour to make pages reach AAA standard wherever possible, and we have the site assessed by The Shaw Trust to ensure it passes "real life" accessibility tests.

We appreciate that we can always do better. Maintaining an accessible site is an on-going process and we are continually working to offer a user-friendly experience. However, if you have any problems using this web site, please contact us by email .

 

Further Assistance

The BBC have recently launched My Web My Way - a new website to help users make browsing easier. The website, a partnership between the BBC and AbilityNet, explains the many ways you can change your browser, computer, keyboard and mouse settings to make the web more accessible.
