Making the web inclusive for all

In keeping with our policy of customers first, and our obligations under the Equality Act 2010, we want to ensure as many people as possible are able to use this website. 

Making our website accessible is a core aim of Argentis Group and we will aim to ensure that it is usable with a broad range of operating systems, browsers, and specialist assistive technologies.

We employ the following methods to support our aim:

  • All pictures have an alternative text description;
  • Our stylesheets allow for text resizing using the View – Text Size option in your browser toolbar;
  • The website stylesheets may be easily switched off for high contrast viewing should the theme be difficult to read;
  • We are committed to using plain English in all our written content;
  • Our site has been designed without the use of tables except where we need to represent normally tabulated content i.e. timetables;
  • The website can be navigated without the use of a mouse;
  • A sans-serif font is used for easier readability;
  • We do not use all-capitals for emphasis, except for visual impact in a minority of cases;
  • We use a hierarchy of heading markups i.e. a H1 tag for site/page headings, a H2 for page/sub headings etc which makes it easier for screen readers to work out the structure of a page; and
  • Our site can be viewed in a logical order when all styling is turned off.
