Network South Glos are aware that many of our users have varying needs or a disability which may affect how they may view and access the web.
We are committed to ensuring that all of our content and facilities can be used by all our users. The following highlights some of the initiatives designed to make the Web site interface and content more usable and accessible.
Overall Framework and Interface
The overall Web site has been designed to provide users with a seamless view and user experience of the service.
The framework and interface has been designed to provide a consistent structure throughout the Web site, so users will know exactly where to find navigation, content and important information.
The structure of the interface is broken down as follows:
- Top bar – This includes the Network South Glos logo and contact details.
- Left sidebar – This contains the websites navigation with links to the websites pages, which provides access to the key areas and content within the website.
- Content area – The central content area updates to present the page of content that has been selected.
- Footer – This contains information about the website.
Visual Design
- Colours – We have tried to use colours throughout the Web site that provide maximum contrast between foreground and background items.
- Images – All graphics and images throughout the Web site have been assigned an Alt-text attribute, which describes the contents or function of the item.
