The 大象传媒 has a long tradition of making information available and accessible. It seeks to be open and accountable and already provides the public with a great deal of information about its activities. 大象传媒 Information operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, handling telephone and written comments and queries, and the 大象传媒's website provides an extensive online information resource.
大象传媒 accessibility policy
In keeping with its public service remit, and its obligations under the Disability Discrimination Act, the 大象传媒 will ensure that its media is accessible to people who have visual, hearing, motor or cognitive impairments.
Accessibility is a partnership between site producers like the 大象传媒 and the creators of the operating system, browser, and specialist assistive technologies which many disabled users employ to allow them, for example, to view websites in easier-to-read colours, with larger fonts, or as spoken text.
As such technologies have become more available and sophisticated, the 大象传媒 will:
- Ensure that its media work well with these assistive technologies to ensure an accessible experience for disabled users.
- Provide the 'Accessibility Help' site which will guide users in customising their computers (either by explaining the accessibility features of their operating systems or browser, or by introducing them to the range of assistive technologies which are available) to provide them with the most accessible web experience, not just for but all websites.
The 大象传媒 will also work with those in the wider accessibility community to support the future development of these technologies and the standards that allow all websites to be created to work best for them.
The 大象传媒's Welsh Language Scheme
The 大象传媒 is committed to communicating bilingually with the public in Wales. The 大象传媒's Welsh Language Scheme incorporates many of the current working practices of the 大象传媒 and formalises language policies, as required by the Welsh Language Board.
The 大象传媒 recognises the principle of equality between English and Welsh. Regard for both languages has been integral to the administration of the 大象传媒 in Wales for many years.
