Navigation
We have designed the site to
be a portal to gain access to services within the Age Concern
Durham County area.
We have tried to design the site so that you will be able
to access any sub-section of the site within "2 clicks",
and any page, within "3 clicks".
Document formats
Some documents available
on this Website are published in Adobe Acrobat's Portable
Document Format (PDF).
The free Adobe Acrobat Reader allows you to view, navigate,
and print PDF (Portable Document Format) files across all
major computing platforms, this can be downloaded from the
adobe website.
Alternative ways to view Adobe Acrobat documents
If your screen reader software (for example an audio-enabled
web browser) is not compatible with the free Adobe Acrobat
Reader, Adobe provide a free online tool which converts the
content of PDF files to a format which can be understood by
most screen reader applications.
Searching the Site
There is a link to the
quick search box on the menu bar of each page. Type the words
you want to search for in the box and press Return to search
the whole website.
We have chosen not to include a full text search of every
page, but rather to undertake a "keyword" search.
We have assigned a number of "keywords" to each
page which we hope will allow you to find things quickly.
If you have any difficulties with the search facilities,
please contact the Webmaster We are constantly refining the search criteria and would appreciate
any feedback.
