Tonbridge and Malling Borough Council run this website. We aim to make it as easy to use as possible. You should be able to:
- change colours, contrast levels and fonts
- zoom in up to 300 per cent without the text spilling off the screen
- navigate most of the website using only a keyboard
- listen to our website using a screen reader.
Go to AbilityNet to find out how to make these changes.
All non-text content has a text alternative.
