Llangollen Rural Community Council is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability. We aim to adhere as closely as possible to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.0, Level AA), published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines explain how to make Web content more accessible for people with disabilities. Conformance with these guidelines will help make the web more user friendly to everyone. Whilst Llangollen Rural Community Council strive to adhere to the guidelines and standards for accessibility, it is not always possible to do so in all areas of the website and we are currently working to achieve this. Be aware that due to the dynamic nature of the website, minor issues may occasionally occur as it is updated regularly. We are continually seeking out solutions that will bring all areas of the site up to the same level of overall web accessibility.

If you have any comments and or suggestions relating to improving the accessibility of our site, please don't hesitate to contact our accessibility coordinator Steve Edwards e-mail: newsletter.llangollenrural@gmail.com Your feedback will help us make improvements.

What have we done to improve accessibility to this site?

  • We have set the regional settings to the United Kingdom.

This will allow assistive technologies to interpret it correctly. This ensures that the technologies adjust the accent, pitch and speaking rate of the content to suit the language.

  • We have enabled visual indicators

This makes it easier for visitors to see exactly where they are on the page and what they have selected.

  • Removed the scrolling effects on the pages.

This makes it clearer for visitors when scrolling through the pages.

  • Wix sites (this one included) are optimized for the following (most commonly used) screen readers:

Windows + Firefox or Chrome: NVDA (Free reader)

Mac + Safari: Voiceover (Built-in reader)

Android + Chrome: Talkback (Built-in reader)

iOS + Safari: Voiceover (Built-in reader)

  • Fonts are being changed to Arial 

Clear fonts make it easier to read the text on the pages​

  • We are constantly improving accessibility to this site.
