Accessibility statement for Visit Inverness Loch Ness

We want everyone who visits this website to feel welcome and find the experience rewarding.

What are we doing?
To help us make the Visit Inverness Loch Ness website a positive place for everyone, we’ve been using the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities, and user friendly for everyone.

The guidelines have three levels of accessibility (A, AA and AAA). We’ve chosen Level AA as the target for the Visit Inverness Loch Ness website.

How are we doing?
We’re working hard to achieve our goal of Level AA accessibility, but we realise there are some areas that still need improving – we’re working on it, please bear with us.
