Technical information about this website’s accessibility
Monk Fryston Parish Council is committed to making its website accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) Accessibility Regulations 2018.
This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 AA standard, due to the non‑compliances listed below.
Non‑accessible content
Non‑compliance with the accessibility regulations
- Some images may not have appropriate alternative text (WCAG 1.1.1).
- Some PDFs and documents may not be fully accessible (WCAG 4.1.2).
