Website Accessibility - Tips

Overview

Parish Online has set your website up to meet the latest accessibility guidelines.  However, how you add content will affect the accessibility of your website.  Here's some things to bear in mind.

Tips

  1. Use sentence case in everything you put on the website.  The use of block capitals for emphasis makes it much easier to read your website using a screen reader.
  2. Posters containing words and images are not great for accessibility unless they are saved as PDF's.  It's much better to put the information in as text and images within the page itself.  You can still attach your poster as well.
  3. You should save a document as a PDF rather than print it to make it more accessible.
