Accessibility statement

This accessibility statement applies to the Respond to an NHS cyber alert service (cyberalerts.digital.nhs.uk) only.

This service is run by NHS Digital. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this service. For example, that means you should be able to:

• Change colours, contrast levels and fonts
• Zoom in without the text spilling off the screen
• 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.

AbilityNet has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.

We know some parts of this website are not fully accessible:

We have at least 1 PDF downloadable version of a report which hasn't been designed for accessibility.

If you need information on this website in a different format like accessible PDF, large print, easy read, audio recording, alternative languages or braille please contact us.

We’re always looking to improve the accessibility of this service. If you find any problems not listed on this page or think we’re not meeting accessibility requirements please contact us.

The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) is responsible for enforcing the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018 (the ‘accessibility regulations’). If you’re not happy with how we respond to your complaint, contact the Equality Advisory and Support Service (EASS).

NHS Digital is committed to making its website accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.
