Accessibility
We believe that the internet and services which we run should be open and accessible to all and have implemented and audited a range of features to ensure this is possible.
Visionrcl.org.uk is the primary website used by Vision Redbridge Culture and Leisure.
This accessibility applies to visionrcl.org.uk and may differ on our sub websites. Within our websites you should be able to:
- Zoom in up to 400% without problems
- Navigate the website using just a keyboard
- Use the website with a screen reader
- Use our accessibility tool, Recite Me for enhanced accessibility tools
To fulfil our commitment to an internet and website which is accessible to all, we aim to adhere to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.2 (WCAG 2.2) at the AA level. Visionrcl.org.uk is built using W3C valid HTML 5 and CSS.
If you wish to contact our website team, you can get in touch on data.information@visionrcl.org.uk.
