The site provides advice and help to all those people who would benefit from making changes to their browser, operating system, or computer to be able to view the web in a more accessible way.

The site is not only for those with disabilities (visual, hearing, motor, cognitive or learning impairments) but also, for example, for those people with minor vision impairments who would not consider themselves to have a disability.

Plain English:

When we last redesigned our website we wanted the site to be:

• free of jargon, using simple, plain English.
• easy to search, so you can search and retrieve information about Council services without having any knowledge of the Council’s structure, or what we call things - for example we would call it an Abandoned Vehicle, you would probably call it a Dumped Car.

• to present information in a logical order and write clearly and simply using everyday words and short sentences.
• keep our web page design simple, consistent and free of moving images.
