This website is run by Cornwall Mind. We want as many people as possible to be able to use it. So, we constantly test and improve the site to make sure it’s accessible.
We’ve designed the site to make sure it follows the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.1 at Level AA.
On our website, you should be able to:
We don’t have accessibility tools on the website, like overlays. Testing with our users showed us tools like these don’t meet all our accessibility criteria. Sometimes they even got in the way of a good user experience.
Instead, we want to support our users by creating an accessible website. So, we don’t have to rely on extra tools like overlays.
We’re working to make sure our site is accessible. But we know we still have work to do. Below, we’ve outlined the issues we’re trying to fix, and the improvements we’d like to make:
Cornwall Mind is committed to making its website accessible, in line with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.
This website is generally compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1 AA standard. And we’re continuing to work on the parts where we’re not compliant.
The content listed below isn’t accessible. But we’re working to improve it.
We need some PDFs and Word documents so we can run our services. For example, we have PDFs with instructions on how people can access our services.
We’re working on all our PDF documents to either make them accessible, or to replace them with accessible webpages.
We use platforms like YouTube and Vimeo that provide a live caption service.
