Accessibility statement for Swanage Medical Practice
This website is run by Oldroyd Publishing Group on behalf of Swanage Medical Practice. 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 most 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 are also making the website text as simple as possible to understand.
AbilityNet has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.
Keyboard navigation in Mac OS
For keyboard navigation to work in Mac OS an option has to be turned on:
System Preferences

In that panel is a check box labelled "Use keyboard navigation to move focus between controls". Check that box and Restart your browser for the change to take effect.

Compliance Status
This website is compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.2 AA standard, except for the exemptions listed below.
Content that is not within the scope of the accessibility regulations
PDFs and other documents
This site may contain older PDFs and Word documents, published before 23rd September 2018, which do not meet accessibility standards - for example, they may not be structured so they’re accessible to a screen reader. This does not meet WCAG 2.2 success criterion 4.1.2 (name, role value).
The accessibility regulations do not require us to fix PDFs or other documents published before 23rd September 2018 if they are not essential to providing services.
Disproportionate burden
Google Maps - There’s a limit to how far you can magnify any embedded Google Maps on the website.
The code for these maps is supplied by Google and we are unable to make amendments to it.
Google Maps in general can also include issues such as very small text, redundant titles on buttons and the inclusion of layout tables not given the role of presentation.
