NHS Norfolk & Waveney Integrated Care Board are committed to making our website accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.

This website is currently under review and work is underway to improve the accessibility of the content we make available through Knowledge Anglia to ensure that all users can use our website, regardless of disability. We will be seeking to do this through the development of a new web application built with an accessibility-first approach.

This approach means that users should be able to:

use contrast buttons to view the website using soft or high colour contrasts
zoom in up to 300% without problems
navigate the website using only a keyboard
navigate the website using speech recognition software
listen to the website using a screen reader
We use plain English whenever possible to make our content clear and easy to understand.

You can also get help by visiting “My Computer My Way” published by AbilityNet. They have prepared a simple guide to make it easier for you to use your computer, laptop, tablet, or smart phone.
