Technical information about this website's accessibility
South Yorkshire and Bassetlaw Integrated Care System is committed to making its website accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.
Compliance status
This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1 AA standard, due to the the non-compliances and exemptions listed below.
Web standards and technologies
This website has been built to comply with W3C standards for HTML and CSS - these web technologies are relied upon throughout the site.
The site displays correctly in all popular web browsers and should be able to adapt fluidly when used with older browsers.
This website uses JavaScript but this technology is not relied upon. The website works perfectly well without it. Where JavaScript has been used, it meets the same high levels of accessibility as the rest of the site.
Viewing as 'High Contrast'
To view all of the pages in high contrast mode, go to to the accessibility toolbar at very bottom of the page and within the 'Contrast' toggle , select the white circle with black dot icon. This will present all pages in black and white in highly visible text. There are other choices with similar effects in the same menu.
Please note: To return to normal viewing of pages you must click again on the same button again or the 'reset' arrow icon in the same toolbar menu.
Increasing the font size
To increase the font size, go to the accessibility toolbar and find the options for 'Text size'. You can then choose to increase or decrease the text size - see the icons '+' or '-'. You can also reset it if you want to restore the default text size.
Alternatively, you can do this in your browser:
- Internet Explorer: choose the drop down menu at the top of the window of the browser marked 'View'. A list of options will appear in the drop down menu - choose 'Text Size' and select your preference
- Firefox: choose the drop down menu at the top of the window of the browser marked 'View'. A list of options will appear in the drop down menu - choose 'Zoom' and then 'Zoom In'
- Google Chrome - Change text, image and video sizes (zoom)
You can also do this via the 'Ctrl' and '+' or '-' keys on your keyboard as appropriate.
Access Keys
Our website does not offer any access keys to avoid any interference with Screen reader technologies. Screen readers already include keyboards shortcuts and disabled users can find keyboard shortcuts an additional and unnecessary burden.
