Last Updated: [Enter Relevant Date]

At Valentines Podiatry, we are fully committed to ensuring our website (www.valentinespodiatry.com) is accessible to everyone, including individuals with disabilities. Our goal is to provide an inclusive and seamless browsing experience for all users.

What Web Accessibility Means

Web accessibility ensures that visitors with disabilities can access and use a website with the same ease and enjoyment as other visitors. This is achieved through the implementation of specific system capabilities and the support of assistive technologies.

Accessibility Compliance

We have designed our website to comply with WCAG 2.1 guidelines at Level AA, which is the recognised standard for web accessibility. Our efforts include the following adjustments to ensure accessibility for all users:

• Clear and logical content structure with defined page headings.

• Alternative text added to all images for screen-readers.

• Colour combinations that meet the required contrast ratio for readability.

• Reduced use of motion and animations to support users with visual sensitivities.

• Enablement of compatibility with assistive technologies, such as screen readers and keyboard navigation.

• Setting the language of all site content for accurate screen reader interpretation.

• All videos, audio files, and downloadable materials are made accessible.

Partial Compliance for Third-Party Content

Certain sections of our website may include content provided by third-party platforms. We cannot guarantee full accessibility compliance for these third-party elements. If any issues arise from such content, please notify us using the contact details included below.

Reporting Issues and Feedback

Accessibility in Our Practice

Our physical location has been designed with accessibility in mind. From parking facilities to our treatment rooms, we have ensured that we accommodate patients with disabilities effectively. Accessible entrances, disability-friendly restrooms, and other facilities are available for use.

We are dedicated to providing inclusive services to all visitors and patients and will continue to update and improve our accessibility features.
