Website Accessibility
Plymouth Age Concern has developed this website to meet accessibility guidelines as set by the government. We have strived to ensure we meet the "AAA" compliancy level as set by the W3C (Web Accessibility Initiative). This is an ongoing process, and we are continually working to make sure all new content and features meet these guidelines.
Accessible design
Many Internet sites are designed in a fashion which makes them difficult, or even impossible, to use by Internet users with disabilities. Plymouth Age Concern has changed it's site so that it can take advantage of the technology that assists users with disabilities such as screen-readers and those users who have to use older browser technologies.
Access Keys
We have added access keys to this site which allow you to navigate around the site using your keyboard. Instructions for how to use access keys on your system are further down the page.
