NI Private Speech Therapy Accessibility Statement

 

General

NI Private Speech Therapy is committed to ensuring that its services and digital content are accessible to people with disabilities. We believe that every individual has the right to live with dignity, equality, comfort, and independence, and we strive to make our website as inclusive and usable as possible.

​

The NI Private Speech Therapy website (www.niprivatespeechtherapy.com) is built using the Wix platform and includes the TabNav accessibility widget, which provides a range of assistive tools designed to improve usability for users with different accessibility needs. These tools allow visitors to customise their browsing experience and access content in ways that best suit them.

​

Accessibility is an ongoing process, and we continually review and improve our website to enhance accessibility wherever reasonably practicable.
