This accessibility statement applies to www.ncpes.co.uk
This website is run by Picker on behalf of NHS England. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. For example, that means you should be able to:
- use your web browser 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)
- access the website using a mobile or tablet.
We’ve also made the website text as simple as possible to understand.
Please note that by opening PDF documents in Adobe, rather than the browser, more accessibility features may be available.
AbilityNet has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.
