This statement applies to content published by the Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Councils Content Management System (CMS) on the armaghbanbridgecraigavon.gov.uk domain. This website is run by Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council, and as an organisation we are committed to continuing to make this website as accessible as possible for all users by complying with the The Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.

Accessibility features available on this website include:

Changing colours, font, text size and other settings

All modern browsers allow you to change colours and font sizes. We’ve tried to create a site which doesn’t get in the way when you change these settings. For advice on changing settings, including how to adjust type size, colour contrast and how to make your computer speak text aloud, check out the BBC’s accessibility pages (opens in a new window). You can choose your operating system (e.g Windows), your Browser (e.g Internet Explorer) and the problem you’re trying to fix. You’ll then get lots of relevant advice on accessibility settings.

Downloading documents

There are a number of Adobe PDF (Portable Document Format) and Microsoft Word documents on the website. We try to tag as many of our PDFs as possible, subject to resources, for basic accessibility. This allows them to be read by speech browsers. We also try to provide an alternative text-only Word document version of a PDF. If you are having trouble opening these files you may need additional software:

For Adobe PDFs, download the latest Adobe Reader software (opens in a new window). For more information about PDF accessibility, please visit the Adobe PDF accessibility section(opens in a new window).
For Microsoft Word documents, download the latest Word Viewer software

If requested, we can provide documents in other formats including Braille, DAISY, audio and large print. If you would like a document in an alternative format, please email or call 0300 0300 900 .
