Page Accessibility
- All images used on this site include descriptive attributes. Purely decorative graphics are only applied as background in the style sheet.
- We have checked the site's font and background colour combination against the different colour blindness conditions and ensured that all information is still clear.
- Cascading style sheets (CSS) are used to set the colour and size of the text within each page. The formatting can be overridden:
- In MS Explorer by selecting Tools - Internet Options - Accessibility
- In Netscape / Firefox by selecting Edit - Preferences - Appearance - Fonts
- Alternatively select 'view' then 'text size' in your browser to adjust the size of the text
Standards compliance
We have strived to meet all priority 3 guidelines of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.
- While we use Bobby to test for accessibility, it is just one aspect of our testing procedure. As a computer programme, the Bobby test is not as reliable as expert evaluation.
