Accessibility Statement
Validation
All the pages of this site have been validated with the following online validation tools:
They have also been checked against our in-house accessibility, W3C Standards and User Agent (i.e. different browsers and devices) testing checklists.
Declaration
We have designed this website to be accessible in accordance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. We have used W3C standards compliant XHTML 1.0 Strict and CSS to aid us in making this site usable and accessible to all.
For more on why we see this as important to us, see our articles section.
We have also endeavoured to achieve AAA accessibility as measured against version 1.0 of the WCAG. We are aware, however, that a number of the Priority 3 checkpoints of the WCAG are subjective and although we believe we have met these checkpoints, there may be instances where interpretation may vary.
Access Keys
We have deliberately chosen not to use access keys on this site. We feel that keyboard shortcut keys place an unnecessary burden on the memory of the user and that they ultimately replicate functionality already possessed by screen reader technologies. We are aware that Checkpoint 9.5 of the WCAG v1.0 relates to the use of access keys, but in light of the reasons outlined above, we have chosen to look towards the upcoming WCAG v2.0, where the implementation of access keys is not a featured checkpoint.
Feedback
