The Aquifer Partnership (TAP) is committed to providing a website that is accessible and enjoyable for people of all abilities. We aim to make this website inclusive for people who have visual, hearing, cognitive and motor impairments.

Improving accessibility

We are actively working to improve our website’s usability and accessibility, with an aim to make it compliant with the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1. We will be monitoring and making ongoing improvements to the website to improve accessibility and achieve conformance with WCAG 2.1 level AA. The majority of our website is already conformant and are aware that certain elements of content, pages and PDFs do not meet the standard.

Having trouble with access

For those of you needing further help on accessing websites, the following information may be useful.
