This site is also built using the latest CSS properties and HTML5 semantic mark-up available in modern web browsers to optimise accessibility.
This website is run by Pierre Thomas Law. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. For example, that means you should be able to:change colours, contrast levels and fonts within your browser:
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)
We’ve also made the website text as simple as possible to understand.

Technical information about this website’s accessibility
Pierre Thomas is committed to making its website accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.
This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1 AA standard, due to the non-compliances listed below.
Non accessible content
The content listed below is non-accessible for the following reasons:
The contrast between certain brand colours may be harder for some users to read without first applying a contrast tool within their browser.
PDF attachments have been used which may not be accessible to everyone.
Non compliance with the accessibility regulations
Colour contrast issues still exist on the site
This can be corrected within your own browser by following the instructions found on abilitynet.org.uk
Content that’s not within the scope of the accessibility regulations
Issues with PDFs and other documents
Many of our older PDF documents don’t meet accessibility standards; for example, they may not be marked up so they’re accessible to a screen reader.
The accessibility regulations don’t require us to fix PDFs or other documents published before 23 September 2018 if they’re not essential to providing our services.
Any new PDFs or Word documents we publish will meet accessibility standards.
