This accessibility statement applies to sussexstaffinmind.nhs.uk
This website is run by Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website.
We have made our website as accessible and usable as possible. We've done this by adding an accessibility and language toolbar to our website as well as following the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1) produced by the World Wide Web Consortium, W3C, the web's governing body.
We've aimed for AA compliance with WCAG, but we haven't necessarily followed all the checkpoints as some are no longer relevant or have been demonstrated to get in the way of accessibility.
For example, that means you should be able to:
- change colours, contrast levels and fonts
- zoom in up to 300% without the text spilling off the screen
- navigate most of the website using just a keyboard
- navigate most of the website using speech recognition software
- listen to most of the website using a screen reader (including the most recent versions of JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver)
We've also made the website text as simple and easy to understand as possible.
AbilityNet has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.
