Accessibiity Statement
Ditton Parish Council is committed to making its website accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.
We aim for this website to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 AA standard.
This website is run by Ditton Parish Council. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. For example, that means you should be able to:
- change colours, contrast levels and fonts using browser or device settings
- zoom in up to 400% without the text spilling off the screen
- navigate most of the website using a keyboard or 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 as possible to understand.
AbilityNet has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.

Non-accessible content
We have carried out an automated accessibility check using the WAVE tool and are reviewing items identified.
Some content may not fully meet accessibility requirements, for example:
- PDFs and other documents may not be fully accessible (for example missing structure such as headings/tags, or not being screen-reader friendly).
- Images or scanned documents may not always have suitable alternative text.
- Some pages may need improvements to heading structure, link text, or colour contrast.
We will update this statement as issues are confirmed and fixed.
