Accessibility Statement
To ensure the best use of our website we have carried out the following work on the differing website components:
Navigation
We have tried to make our site navigation as clear and simple to use as possible. All main pages have alternative text links at the bottom of every page.
Headings and navigation menus
HTML heading tags are used to convey document structure. H1 tags are used for main titles, H2 tags for subtitles etc...
Images
All images used in this site include descriptive alt tag attributes. Where an image has no use other than being decorative, the alt tag is set to null to allow easy reading of the site by all users.
Colours
We have taken care to ensure that the site's font and background
colour combinations contrast significantly and are effective
in ensuring information
is still clear when viewed in different colour combinations.
If you wish to override the site's colours, you can do this
by changing your browser settings to your own preference.
Stylesheets
This site uses cascading style sheets for some elements of visual layout. If your browser or browsing device does not support stylesheets at all, or you have chosen to switch them off, we have endeavoured to ensure that the content of each page is still readable and clearly structured without stylesheets.
Forms and fields
All forms fields follow a logical tab sequence to ensure easy navigation.
Most form fields also have ?id? attributes to explicitly associate
the form field with its label to allow for easy entry of data.
JavaScript
Javascript may be used for some elements of this site. Where it is used then all pages and process are still accessible should Javascript be turned off.
Links
All links have been written to make sense when taken out of context. Where appropriate, we have also added link title attributes to describe the link in greater detail.
Copy
We have tried to ensure that the copy on our website is well laid out and easy to understand.
