I have been using Joomla! of late but would like to takle my next site in Drupal. It's a village hall site (UK) and this is voluntary so there's not much dosh for buyingmodules, etc. I need a XHTML strict theme which claims to be accessible. Can someone point me to such a theme? I've looked at the likes of "007 niGraphic Studio Theme" but does not resize text very well and has no tabbing as such.
Not sure about the default theme, is this accessible?
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Many thanks.

Two ways I look for accessible themes:
http://drupal.org/project/themes?text=accessible
and
http://drupal.org/project/themes?text=508
I like the http://drupal.org/project/genesis as a starter theme, but it has some nice complete subthemes as well.

Genesis 2 is out now and has many accessibility features built in, including WAI ARIA roles, skip link, content source ordering, all fonts in relative units (ems), XHTML Strict validation, and passes WAVE, FAE and WCAG Priority 3.
Did I mention that it rocks as well ;) he he...
Here's a list of the 11 most accessible themes for Drupal: http://openconcept.ca/blog/mgifford/function_assessment_of_valid_drupal_...
The default Garland theme does a pretty good job, although it does have some issues, font-size set in pixels being one of them.
Here is the all shiny and new Accessibility Documentation for Drupal themers.
Pimp your Drupal 8 Toolbar - make it badass.
Adaptivetheme - theming system for people who don't code.
Did you have a look on themegarden.org
There are quite a lot of themes in http://themegarden.org. You might need to modify them to fit your need. I think it is a quite easy thing to do in Drupal, unlike the complicated theming in Joomla which makes me gave up Joomla.
