Accessibility Statement for the PSH Website

Website accessibility statement in line with Public Sector Body (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018

We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website, psh.ac.uk. For example, that means you should be able to:

  • change colours, contrast levels and fonts

  • zoom in up to 200% 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 (Job Access with Speech), NVDA (NonVisual Desktop Access) and VoiceOver)

We have made the website text as simple as we can so we can reach the widest possible audience. However, sometimes we use technical terms where there is no other wording that could be used without changing what the text means.
