Our Commitment to Accessibility

Manningham Foot Clinic is committed to ensuring that our website is accessible to all users, including people with disabilities.

We strive to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards. These guidelines help make web content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, language, learning, and neurological disabilities.

We believe everyone should have equal access to information about our services and the ability to book appointments online.
