Accessibility
The Government Equalities Office website conforms to a level
Triple-A of the W3C Web Content Accessibility
Guidelines. Conformance to these Guidelines helps make the
website more accessible to users with disabilities and will benefit
all users.

Screen reader
You can download the accessibility software 'Browsealoud',
by clicking the logo in the top-right corner, which will read
this website out to you and highlight words as they are read
out.
How to access PDF documents
We endeavour to make PDF files on our site accessible to screen
readers but as yet cannot guarantee that all content of every PDF
online is accessible. As an alternative we provide a link to
Adobe’s online PDF conversion tool.
Adobe
conversion tools (new window)
The Adobe conversion tool will provide a conversion to HTML 3.2
or text file format. Adobe will convert the document
immediately if you upload the file via the form provided on their
website or you can send it to them via email attachment.
If you prefer to use your screen reader with a browser you could
have the document converted to either HTML or text file format. If
you wish to use your screen reader with word processing software
such as Microsoft Word or Notepad you will need a text version of
the document.
