ACCESSIBILITY FEATURES
We have tried to make our website accessible to as many people as possible and have included a number of features which can be used to assist you with navigation.
Accessible / Printable pages
Each of our pages has a corresponding accessible / printable page for those who are unable to use our main website. This can be accessed by pressing any of the links at the top of this page or by selecting 'Accessibility' from the body of the home page or in the bottom navigation on all pages
Links
On both the main site and our accessible / print pages, our main menu items have tabindex attributes assigned and in most cases, also accesskeys. We have chosen access keys which should not interfere with the most common screen reading technology shortcuts.
For those who would like to skip navigation and browse directly to the text of our pages, we have included a skip navigation link at the beginning of each page which should allow users of screen reader technology to jump directly to the page content.
The following navigation shortcuts have been assigned:
- Skip Navigation - tabindex 1; accesskey s
- Home - tabindex 2; accesskey i
- About us - tabindex 3; accesskey j
- Our services - tabindex 4; accesskey k
- Postal Market - tabindex 5; accesskey l
- News - tabindex 6; accesskey m
- Case Notes - tabindex 7; accesskey n
- Links - tabindex 8; accesskey o
- Contact us - tabindex 9; accesskey p
- Frequently asked questions - tabindex 10;
- Accessibility - tabindex 11; accesskey z
- Site Map - tabindex 12
In pages where there are sub-menus, these can be accessed by using the tab key.
Using the access key feature differs between browsers. In most web browsers, the user does this by pressing Alt (on PC) or Ctrl (on Mac) simultaneously with the appropriate character on the keyboard followed by the enter key. In Opera, the user presses Shift+Esc followed by the access key (without Alt). In Mozilla Firefox 2.0 the access key keyboard combination has changed to Alt + Shift and no enter key is subsequently required.
Site Map
We have created a site map, accessible from bottom links of every page in both the main site and the accessible / print version. This site map includes links to every page on the website.
Menu items
At the bottom of our main website, there is an accessible menu which will take you to each major section on the website. Sub-sections to main menu items are also displayed underneath this.
