This accessibility statement applies to the Alderstead Council public website at alderstead.gov.uhrblx.com. We want as many people as possible to be able to use the site and to obtain council information without unnecessary barriers.

Using this website

The website is designed to support keyboard navigation, responsive layouts, structured headings and a skip-to-content link. Text can be enlarged using browser or device controls, and the layout is designed to reflow on smaller screens without horizontal scrolling.

Accessibility standard

The council uses the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 AA standard as the technical benchmark for this website. Automated and manual checks are used when the site is materially changed, but automated testing cannot demonstrate compliance with every accessibility requirement.

Documents and third-party content

Some documents, embedded material or services supplied by another public body may have their own accessibility limitations. Where practical, the council should publish essential information as accessible HTML and provide an alternative route when a document cannot be used by a person who needs the information.

Report an accessibility problem

If you cannot use part of this website, contact Alderstead Council. Tell us the page or service you were trying to use, what went wrong and the format or adjustment that would help. This information allows the council to investigate the problem and provide an alternative where appropriate.
