Accessibility
We are committed to ensuring that our website meets high standards of accessibility and usability.
Web Accessibility Initiative
This website has been built in accordance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (WCAG 1.0) established by the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C). Although the guidelines aim to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities there are wider benefits to adopting the guidelines as they make sites more user friendly for all.
W3C Standards
This site has been built using code compliant with W3C standards for XHTML and CSS. The site displays correctly in current browsers and using standards compliant XHTML/CSS code means any future browsers will also display it correctly.
All pages use Cascading Style Sheets (CSS3) for presentation, validated using the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C’s) validation service.
All pages are checked in accordance with Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) guidelines and adhere/comply to these guidelines as far as possible.
Menu Navigation (Access Keys)
You can navigate through the menu using the TAB key.
Text Resizing
If you have a general problem with the size of text on websites (ours and others) there are three ways of increasing the size:
- Change Operating System Preferences
You can change settings within Windows or Macintosh operating system to increase the size of text used – this makes all text on your computer larger (not just websites)
- Change Browser Preferences
You can change settings within your browser to increase the default size of “normal” text – this has the effect of enlarging the text on all the websites that you visit (provided those websites have been built in an accessible way)
- Internet Explorer 6 From the top menu bar, select View and point to Text size
- Internet Explorer 7 From the menu bar underneath the search field, select Page and point to Text size
- Mozilla, Firefox and most other browsers (PC) Hold down the CTRL key and press + Decrease text size: Hold down the CTRL key and press –
- Macintosh (Safari, Firefox and most other browsers) Hold down the Command key and press + Decrease text size: Hold down the Command key and press –
- Zoom-in (Modern Browsers only)
You can use modern browsers to enlarge any web-page – the effect is to zoom-in to the page just like enlarging an image. All “modern” browsers support this feature: Mozilla, Firefox, Safari, and Internet Explorer 8 or later (but unfortunately not Internet Explorer versions 6 or 7)
Links to other websites
Please note that our website contains links to other Internet websites. Those websites are not owned, operated, controlled or reviewed by us, and their webpages may not be fully compliant with our Accessibility Policy. The Accessibility Policies of those websites, and not our Accessibility Policy, define the accessibility features and any questions or concerns should be directed to that website’s owner.
