Accessibility Statement
Epic is committed to making this website accessible to all users.
If you find a problem that prevents access, please email us at contact@epic.co.uk.
We have included several features designed to improve accessibility
for users with disabilities. Some of these features are described
below.
Links
Links are written to make sense when read out of context.
Images
All images used in this site include descriptive ALT attributes.
Visual design
This site uses cascading style sheets for visual layout; however,
if your browser or browsing device does not support stylesheets,
the content of each page is still readable. All pages on this site
use structured semantic markup. H1 tags are used for main titles,
H2 tags for subtitles.
Text size
This site uses only relative font sizes, compatible with the user-specified
'text size' option in visual browsers.
Persistent elements
Layout of the pages has been designed to remain consistent throughout
the site, ensuring that all menus and elements appear in the same
place on every page.
Compliance with best-practice guidelines
1. This site has been developed in compliance with the UK
Disabilities Discrimination Act.
2. All pages on this site comply with priority 1 guidelines of
the W3C
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. Many such guidelines are
vague and cannot be tested for automatically. We have manually reviewed
all the guidelines and believe that all these pages meet the compliance
level to ensure the highest level of accessibility to the majority
of users.
3. All pages on this site have been checked with Bobby and comply
with Bobby
guidelines. This is not an exact science; many accessibility
features can be automatically checked, but many can not. Where applicable,
manual checks have been carried out by an accessibility expert to
assess further compliance.
4. All pages have been verified HTML 4.01 Transitional, meeting
and conforming to published grammars. This ensures that the HTML
code is as clean and efficient as possible.
Epic is actively working to further improve the accessibility of
this site, and reviews significant developments in standards/guidelines
as they appear.
