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.
Activate Keyboard Navigation of main menu
The main menu and sub-pages can be activated by pressing the F12 key on your keyboard. Using the tab key after activation will highlight the 5 main tabs and the drop down menus will appear automatically. Pages can be accessed by using the up, down, right and left arrows on your keyboard.
Skip Navigation
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.
Tab index: 1
Access Key: s
Javascript
Our pages use Javascript for navigation and for photograph display on our Services page. For those without Javascript, text links will appear in the left margin and at the bottom of the webpage which can be accessed using the tab key.
Access Keys
We have also included some Access Keys in our coding. 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.
