    Hi Gina,


    You need to do a lot more work on your website before it is suitable for
    clearance as an accessibility site. For me none of the links are properly
    labelled with "alt-text". This is a small piece of HTML code which you add
    onto the main link address and which when viewed on a web page gives the
    screen reader user  information about that particular link.

    Paul.
