Accessibility Statement

Accessibility statement for the Low Carbon Business Support Programme

This accessibility statement applies to the Low Carbon Business Support Programme Website. This website has been developed by Deyton Bell Limited.

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 300% 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’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.

How accessible this website is

We know some parts of this website are not fully accessible:

  • the map that shows the regions that are eligible might be difficult to use without a mouse

Enforcement procedure

The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) is responsible for enforcing the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018 (the ‘accessibility regulations’).

Technical information about this website’s accessibility

Deyton Bell Limited is committed to making its website accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.

Compliance status

 

This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1 AA standard, due to ‘the non-compliances and exemptions’ listed below.

Non-accessible content

The content listed below is non-accessible for the following reasons.

Non-compliance with the accessibility regulations

  • The map of eligible regions for this programme is difficult to use without a mouse or with a screen reader. We provide alternative text details on the local authorities that are included so this gives similar information (WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.1.1 Non-text Content)
  • Some images do not have a text alternative, so people using a screen reader cannot access the information. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.1.1 (non-text content).
 

Content that’s not within the scope of the accessibility regulations

Application form

The application form is provided by a third party (Bitrix CRM) and therefore we do not have control over the function.

Video

Any video is embedded from YouTube and as a third party supplier and we can cannot control the features available. (Guideline 1.2 – Time-based Media – Provide alternatives for time-based media).

What we’re doing to improve accessibility

We actively encourage feedback from the users of this website, and will aim to improve or provide alternatives to content that cannot be accessed.
