Accessibility statement for the Interim GP Website Service

This statement applies to the interim practice information pages published using this template. It does not describe any practice's permanent website.

How accessible this website is

This site has been designed to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.2 at level AA (WCAG 2.2 AA). It has not yet been independently audited, so this statement describes partial compliance rather than full compliance.

What is in place:

• Semantic HTML landmarks and a skip link on every page
• Text contrast that meets WCAG AA against the backgrounds used
• Interactive targets at least 44×44 CSS pixels (buttons and links 48px minimum)
• Visible keyboard focus indicators that are not removed
• No content that relies on colour alone to convey meaning
• Content that reflows and remains usable at 320px width and at 200% zoom
• A print stylesheet
• No animation, no autoplay media, no time limits
• Arial / Helvetica typography with system font fallback

Known limitations

This site has not been formally tested with assistive technologies by an independent auditor. Known or likely limitations:

• Screen reader behaviour has not been independently verified across JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver and TalkBack.
• The site relies on JavaScript to display practice contact details. A <noscript> message provides a fallback telephone number, but the full contact list is not available without JavaScript.

Feedback and contact information

If you find a problem with this site, or need information in a different format, please contact the practice or the provider of this interim service.

Practice contact details are shown on each practice's information page. If you cannot use the site at all, please telephone the practice directly using the number on your appointment letter or prescription.
