Accessibility
Wheels for Wellbeing is dedicated to meeting accessibility requirements.
Page structure and style
This site is built with valid XHTML. Our content is properly structured, using headings and paragraphs. It uses valid CSS for layout. A high contrast stylesheet is in development. The site is also usable with stylesheets disabled if you prefer, or with your own stylesheet.
Text size
Text can easily be resized if required. (The way we have specified text size means that even Internet Explorer will allow text size adjustments to our site.)
Usually, the ‘View’ menu of your browser will contain commands for changing text size. Some browsers allow you to change text size using the control (or command) key and the + and - keys (or the mouse wheel if you have one).
You can also use your browser settings to alter the font sizes and page colours, on this and other websites.
