Accessibility

Roadmap for highland.gov.uk

We are committed to being a fair and inclusive council, and we are passionate about providing accessible services, ensuring they are properly designed and coded, so more people can use them, more easily, regardless of their hardware, software, language, location, or ability.

We are currently in the process of upgrading and redesigning our website and its content to be fully WCAG 2.2 AA compliant.

This new website was launched in February 2026. We are currently developing our roadmap for future improvements and accessibility fixes.
