Accessibility

This website (museums.calderdale.gov.uk) is run by Calderdale MBC. 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

  • zoom in up to 400% without the text spilling off the screen

  • navigate all 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, NVDA and VoiceOver)

  • We've also made the website text as simple as possible to understand.

​
