W3C Accessibility

This site has been built by DDSN, using the CM3 Content Management System. This system has been designed to meet W3C WAI Level A compliance, which means it's designed to comply with worldwide standards for disability access.

These standards (the 'Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0') were developed and recommended by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and can be found on their website. Version 2.0 is currently being drafted.

Our site has been designed and developed for accessibility to all users, including those using alternative browsers, which cater for specific disabilities. Details of the disability access browsers available can also be found on the W3.org site.
