This accessibility statement applies to: https://huddshealthinnovation.org/

This website is run by the 3M Buckley Innovation Centre (3M BIC) on behalf of the Huddersfield Health Innovation Incubator (HHII). 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 using browser or device settings
• zoom in up to 400% 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 are also working hard to make the website wording as simple as possible to understand.

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