Standards we work towards
As an organisation we have committed ourselves to working towards specific standards to ensure a high level of accessibility. We aim to ensure that all pages of our website are written with valid XHTML, and use valid CSS to style each page.
We also validate our pages against the World-Wide Web Consortium's Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 1.0. These guidelines offer 3 levels of priority, and we ensure that all of our pages are accessible to all priority 1 and most 2 guidelines. Where possible we also try to attain priority 3 guidelines, which are very difficult to achieve.
The most recent set of W3C guidelines are available here.
