Accessibility

We are committed to making this web site as accessible as possible to users with disabilities, including users who may be blind, partially sighted, or have a physical disability.

The design of our website includes a number of accessibility features including:

• A common design throughout rather than providing text only pages for disabled users, and allowing text sizes to be changed to suit the users needs.
• Ensuring that all images used in our site are given appropriate alternative text descriptions ("ALT texts"), as required by internationally-recognised Web accessibility guidelines.
• We strictly avoid the use of framesets throughout the main council website.

This website is best viewed using browser versions 5 or above (Internet Explorer & Netscape Navigator) & Firefox but the site can still be viewed by earlier browsers.
