Reporting problems

If you find any problems not mentioned in this statement, or if you think we are not meeting accessibility requirements, please let us know by:

Making a complaint

The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) is responsible for enforcing the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018, known as the "Accessibility Regulations".

If you contacted us to report a problem with this website and you are not happy with the way we responded, you can contact the Equality Advisory and Support Service (EASS).

Technical information

NHS England is committed to making its website accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.

Compliance status

This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA standard, due to the non-compliances and exemptions listed below.

  • "Find out more", "Click here", "here", "link" etc are used as both the visible and programmatic link phrase for a link on the "Medical services and clinics", "Privacy policy" and "How we use your information (GDPR)" pages. Links that don't adequately convey their purpose can make it difficult for people who use a screen reader to identify the direction of the link, unless they specifically backtrack and read around the link to ascertain its context. This fails WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 2.4.4 Link Purpose (In Context) (A). We plan to ensure the direction of all links on the website is clearly indicated.
  • The accessibility regulations do not require us to fix PDFs or other documents published before 23 September 2018. While there may be PDFs on the website, we want to reassure you that we no longer intend to use PDFs going forward. Any content we publish from now on will meet accessibility standards.

Non-accessible content

Non-compliances with the accessibility regulations were not detected upon the review. Should you find any accessibility issues, please contact us at bedminsterfamilypractice@nhs.net.

Disproportionate burden

Meeting WCAG 2.2 Level AA is not a disproportionate burden.
