We're committed to making our products and services accessible to everyone and are continually looking at ways to improve.
We measure ourselves against the WCAG1.0. The majority of the pages in our site meet level "A" compliance, and many pages meet level 'AAA' compliance. We are working towards implementing at least level "AA" compliance across the site, as set out in the Web Accessibility Initiative.
Wherever possible we use accessible, alternative HTML for Flash objects. We use client scripts only to enhance the user experience and use alternatives when appropriate. In the majority of cases we believe that this should not affect your visit if your browser does not support Flash objects or script.
Our stylesheets:
We use CSS for the visual layout of our site. If your browser or browsing device does not support stylesheets, the content of each page is still accessible.
This site has been developed using relative font sizes to allow users to control text sizes. Users can specify text sizes using the following techniques:
- Microsoft Internet Explorer users can change their text size by selecting View > Text Size > Larger
- Firefox users can change their text size by selecting View > Text Size > Increase
- Safari users can change their text size by selecting View > Make Text Bigger
