We aim to provide a website that’s accessible to all users.
We are part of NHS England's Accessible Information Standard (AIS) scheme, which ensures that people who have a disability, impairment or sensory loss can access easy-to-understand information and communication support. By law, all organisations that provide NHS care or adult social care must follow the Standard.
Your Sexual Health Matters is designed to meet Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 AA standards and it can be used with screen readers. Our information also uses jargon-free, clear language.
If you are looking for information on the accessibility options in our clinics, please visit our page about extra assistance when you visit.
