This accessibility statement applies to the NIHR SPCR website. The NIHR School for Primary Care Research is committed to providing an accessible web presence that gives members of the public and members of the NIHR SPCR full access to information, events and activities made public through the website.

The four principles of website content accessibility guidelines (WCAG) are based on:

  • Perceivable
  • Operable
  • Understandable
  • Robust

The SPCR would like as many people as possible to be able to use this website. For example, this website enables users to do the following:

  • Users can change colours, contrast levels and fonts
  • Users can zoom in up to 300% without the text spilling off the screen
  • Users can navigate most of the website using just a keyboard
  • Users can read the website on mobile phone and tablet
  • Descriptions of images are accompanied by the equivalent text
  • Users can read transcripts of online videos (synchronised)
  • Users can make sense of structure of the website when styling is removed
  • There is enough contrast between foreground text and background colour
  • Users can flip the content horizontally and vertically
  • Content is resized to a single column with not horizontal scrolling
  • listen to most of the website using a screen reader (including the most recent versions of JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver)
