Using the Postcomm website

The Postcomm website has been designed to be accessible for the widest possible audience - regardless of ability. The site is fully compatible with a screen reader, and the text can be easily re-sized. In addition, images on our website are accompanied by an alternative text description that is read in place of the image, when image loading is turned off for example.
Our new site is built without using tables to construct the layout of each page, which means that it can be resized to fill any browser window and can easily be viewed on any technology.

Re-sizable text

To aid users whose eye sight means they would prefer a larger text size, we have enabled the text on this site to scale. You can scale the text by selecting "View" from the browser's menu, and then adjust the "Text Size" or "Text Zoom" option as appropriate.

Further assistance

  • If you have any other problems with the site, please email webmanager@psc.gov.uk for further assistance.
