This page was last updated 23 July 2024.

This accessibility statement applies to https://www.syrechealthandsocialcarecareers.co.uk/

This website is run by NHS South Yorkshire ICB. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website.

For example, that means you should be able to:

  • use your web browser to change colours, contrast levels and fonts
  • zoom in up to 300% without the text spilling off the screen
  • navigate most of the website using just a keyboard
  • navigate most of the website using speech recognition software
  • listen to most of the website using a screen reader (including the most recent versions of JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver)
  • access the website using a mobile or tablet.

On sections that don’t provide technical information, we’ve also made the website text as simple as possible to understand.

AbilityNet has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.
