Accessibility Policy

Our website is designed to be accessible and usable for everyone who visits it. Bromford is committed to making its website accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.

You can set up your computer to make online access easier by visiting the AbilityNet website. AbilityNet can help you to:

  • Make your mouse easier to use

  • navigate most of the website using a keyboard or speech recognition software
  • listen to most of the website using a screen reader (including the most recent versions of JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver)
