What we are doing to improve accessibility

The guidelines have three levels of accessibility (A, AA and AAA). We have chosen Level AA as the target for the Buckinghamshire Crematoria website.

We monitor accessibility using automated checks with Siteimprove and manual checks.

We have worked hard on the Buckinghamshire Crematoria website and our website is partially compliant with the AA level of accessibility.

We monitor the website regularly, but if you do find any problems, please get in touch.
