Accessibility

We want everyone who visits this website to feel welcome and find the experience rewarding.

What are we doing?

To help us make our website a positive place for everyone, we've been using the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities, and user friendly for everyone.

The guidelines have three levels of accessibility (A, AA and AAA). We’ve chosen Level AA as the target for our website.

How are we doing?

We've worked hard on the website and believe we've achieved our goal of Level AA accessibility. We monitor the website regularly to maintain this, but if you do find any problems, please get in touch.

Let us know what you think

If you enjoyed using our website, or if you had trouble with any part of it, please contact us.

This accessibility statement was generated with the help of the Accessibility Statement Generator.

The Group's accessibility policy

The Group endeavours to make sure that every page within this site complies with the World Wide Web Consortium’s Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) (part of the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI)). This site has been built to achieve all Priority Level 1 checkpoints and many Priority Level 2 checkpoints.

How this benefits disabled visitors

To illustrate how compliancy has made this site more accessible, we have listed representative disabilities below and explained how this site meets the users' needs.

Visual (Impaired)

Those with visual impairments (e.g. myopia) can scale on all pages on the site to suit their own requirement. All text on pages is scaled, including all menu items. Where images are used to convey information, text-based alternative descriptions are provided.

Hearing

There is no content on this site that cannot be accessed by deaf or hard of hearing people. If we were to include audio clips we would also provide a text version of the soundtrack. If we were to include movie clips or video streaming we would also provide time-indexed subtitles.

Speech

This site may be accessed using voice-controlled computer and web browser.

Neurological

There are no animated images or flashing text on this site which could - in extreme cases - cause difficulty for some people with particular neurological disorders.
