Since the final part of the Disability Discrimination Act came into force in October 2004 we has been working towards full compliance with the provisions of the act.
For further information on the compliance project, please contact the eCommerce Manager.
We are committed to serving all of our customers equally. Therefore we have undertaken the following actions to ensure equal access to our services from our web site:
1. Standard fonts are used throughout the site for easy legibility. We have designed all our pages so that they can be read by screen readers.
2. Wherever possible, we use live text instead of graphics to reduce the download time of pages and increase your control.
3. We recognise that for some users the use of colours and graphics can affect their enjoyment of the site. You can change the colour, background colour or switch off graphics completely by selecting from the options available in your browser. No information is exclusively conveyed using colour. This does not mean that colours are not used to organise information, instead it means there are also other, non-colour dependent ways of doing so.
4. The majority of our pages are designed so that they are without horizontal scrollbars when they are viewed at a screen resolution of 800 x 600 pixels.
5. A link to details of how to contact us for further information offline is provided.
6. Style of navigation remains consistent through the web sites.
We have attempted to comply specifically with:
Priority 1 guidelines of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines and, where possible, Priority 2 guidelines. The elements covered by the Priority 3 guidelines are not, in most cases used by our sites, however as the sites develops such functions we will aim for compliance at this level.
We are committed to a process of on-going improvement and are working to ensure all older content is made compliant with the provisions of the DDA and that all new content is developed under the guidelines outlined above.
If you have difficulty accessing the site or have any comments or feedback on how we can improve your online experience, please do not hesitate to contact the eCommerce manager on the contact details below:
