L-W-O Community Accessibility Statement


 

L-W-O Community strives to ensure that its services are accessible to everyone. The website is written entirely by me Gaynor Leech, Founder of L-W-O Community. I have invested a significant number of resources to ensure that this website is made easier to use and accessible. The website pages I write are based my own lived experience and on questions raised by L-W-O Community Support Group members on how best to live with lymphoedema. I do not offer medical advice but aim to provide, information and support.

 

How do I do this?

 

  • Create information using a documented process

  • Attend conferences, webinars, community events within the lymphoedema community, either in person or via video conferencing.

  • Regularly undertake CPD certified healthcare and wellbeing courses to keep up to date which allows me to write more effectively.

  • People living with lymphoedema are involved in the development of information.

  • There is a process to provide feedback.

  • Our information is promoted through this website and our social media channels.

  • I measure the impact through analytic highlights provided by my website hosting package.

  • I measure impact of our social media channels provided by the Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and YouTube.

  • This website uses cookies which you can decline.

Images and Videos

I've been working to make this website more accessible, but there may be some areas I haven't covered. To the best of my knowledge, all images will include ALT text. However, not every video will include audio descriptions, captions, or transcripts. L-W-O Community has its own YouTube channel, which offers a live captioning service.

L-W-O Community is partially conformant to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG Version 2.1 at level AA.
