Accessibility guidelines
We’re working to ensure all pages on this website conform to level AA of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0|. These guidelines are the internationally recognised benchmark for building accessible websites.
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities. Conformance with these guidelines also makes web content more user friendly for all people.
Accessibility guardianship
The Macmillan Cancer Support website and some of our affiliated websites were independently audited by Nomensa| in June 2011. A roadmap is now in place and Macmillan Cancer Support aim to achieve our accessibility goals within the next year.
