Screen reader access
A screen reader is a software programme often used by people with visual impairments to read web pages aloud. The Gambling Commission website contains several features to support their usage: The first link on the page is a hidden "Skip to main menu" link that allows screen reader users to skip directly to the main menu, bypassing links and site graphics. The second link is a hidden "Skip to main content" link that jumps users to the main content, bypassing links, site graphics and the main menu.
