MAKING OUR SITE ACCESSIBLE TO ALL
In keeping with our policy of member's first, and our obligations under the DDA (Disability Discrimination Act), we will ensure that our website is accessible to people who have visual, hearing, motor or cognitive impairments.
Making our website accessible is a core aim of the Federation and we will try and ensure that it is usable with a broad range of operating systems, browsers, and specialist assistive technologies. As a standard, we employ all the following methods to ensure our site is accessible to as many people as possible:
Our stylesheets allow for text resizing using the View – Text Size option in the browser toolbar;
The website stylesheets can be easily switched off for high contrast viewing should the theme be difficult to read;
We are committed to plain english in all our written content;
To find out more about making your computer more accessible and easy to use, have a look at AbilityNet’s website. They have a range of tips and suggestions relating to accessibility issues.
If there is an instance when our site does not meet the need of a specific disabled user group we will make changes to our current content, wherever appropriate, so that we can become more inclusive to a wider audience. Please contact us if this is the case.
