Jane,
There are 154 project receiving funding from the New Opportunities Fund Digi
Programme (http://www.nof-digitise.org/index.htm) each of which will result
in a web site that has to meet a set of technical specifications developed
by NOF:
http://www.peoplesnetwork.gov.uk/content/technical.asp These standards
include accessibility issues.
As websites are launched (The programme continues until spring 2004), they
are being listed at the following site:
http://www.enrichuk.net/. Folks developing these sites will be building up a
lot of expertise about coping with the sort of issues that you are facing.
Hope this helps,

Peter,
Thanks for your comments on the accessibility of these and other sites - a
good reminder to us all.
Can you recommend any sites that *do* meet the standards???
If you know of any that are both accessible and well designed I'd be even
more pleased to hear about them!
Best wishes,
Jane
