Accessibility

We are committed to making our website accessible to all users.  Our aim is to comply with the requirements of the Equality Act 2010 and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines proposed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). 

With this in mind, we have included several features designed to improve accessibility for users with disabilities.  However, we welcome comments on how to improve the site's accessibility for users with disabilities.

Text Resizing

If you have a general problem with the size of text on websites (ours and others) there are four ways of increasing the size:

1. 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)
2. 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).
3. Zoom-in
   You can use modern browsers to enlarge any web-page - the effect is to zoom-in to the page just like enlarging an image. Simply hold down the CTRL key and press + Decrease text size: Hold down the CTRL key and press -.  This feature can also be activated through the 'Text larger / smaller' links shown above.

Web Accessibility Initiative

This website has been built in accordance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.0) 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.
