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 website:
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 websites.
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:
