Plymouth City Council, GB is seeking compliance with the AA standard for website accessibility

Plymouth City Council, GB website accessibility

In Progress

Plymouth City Council is seeking compliance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines AA standard. The Council keeps its website text simple and allows users to change colours, contrast levels, and fonts. Users can zoom in on text up to 300% and navigate most of the website with speech recognition software or just a keyboard and listen to most of the website with a screen reader. The Council regularly tests the accessibility of its website with automated tools including Publica11y and WAVE.

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 covers a wide range of recommendations for making Web content more accessible. Following these guidelines will make content more accessible to a wider range of people with disabilities, including accommodations for blindness and low vision, deafness and hearing loss, limited movement, speech disabilities, photosensitivity, and combinations of these, and some accommodation for learning disabilities and cognitive limitations; but will not address every user need for people with these disabilities. These guidelines address accessibility of web content on desktops, laptops, tablets, and mobile devices. Following these guidelines will also often make Web content more usable to users in general.
