Accessibility Statement

Step By Step Fostering is committed to meeting the requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act and makes every effort to ensure its communications are accessible to those with special needs, including those with visual, hearing, cognitive and motor impairments.

We have strived to make this website adhere to priority 1, 2 and 3 guidelines of the W3 Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.

Links

Many links have title attributes which describe the link in greater detail, and in the majority of cases the text of the link already fully describes the target. Wherever possible, links are written to make sense out of context. Many browsers (such as JAWS, Home Page Reader, Lynx and Opera) can extract the list of links on a page and allow you to browse the links separately from the page.

Link text is never duplicated. Two links on the same page with the same link text always point to the same address.

Some links on the site will open a new browser window (when the link target is on a non-Step By Step Fostering page).

Help with Finding Content

The site has been structured such that there are core sections relating to each of the Step By Step Fostering content areas. Links to our policies, including our Privacy Policy, our Terms Of Use and this Accessibility Statement appear on every page.
