Our website has been developed with the top priority of ensuring content is as accessibility friendly as possible. This has been achieved by adhering to best practices, such as compliance with W3C standards.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if there are any issues which restrict your access to the site.
This accessibility statement records the main steps that we have taken to accommodate the needs of anyone wishing to visit our website.
Standards compliance
The pages on this website were built in 2016 to comply with a minimum standard of WCAG AA, complying with all priority 1 and 2 guidelines of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.
All pages on this site validate as XHTML 1.0 Transitional.
All pages on this site use structured semantic markup. H1 tags are used for main titles, H2, H3 and H4 tags for subtitles.
Navigation aids
All pages contain a link to the home page, and the menu system has been constructed in a consistent fashion throughout the website. All pages on the website include a search box.
Images
All content images used in this site include descriptive ALT attributes. Purely decorative graphics include null ALT attributes.
Visual design
This site uses cascading style sheets for visual layout.
If your browser or browsing device does not support stylesheets at all, the content of each page is still readable.
An alternative colour contrast version is available by using the control in the header on the top of all pages, this is in the top right hand corner of the screen.
The design is “responsive” meaning it will change and adapt the layout for different screen sizes such as those found on tablet and mobile.
Fonts
This site uses relative font sizes, compatible with the user-specified “text size” option in visual browsers.
The font size can also be increased using the control in the header at the top of all pages.
Fonts size and colour has been carefully chosen to meet recommended sizing standards and contrast with background
Some visually impaired web users need to take further steps to make websites visible. Internet Explorer and many other browsers enable you to specify your own Cascading Style Sheet that will override the styling of the websites that you view. This will give you full control of the visual appearance of the text in websites. You can find out more about specifying your own CSS file by using the Help function within your web browser software.
