Leuka recognises the importance of providing a website that is accessible to everyone and easy to use. On this page we outline our ongoing commitment to making our online services accessible and explain the features on this site.

The following features have been introduced to improve navigation for screen and keyboard users and for text-only browsers.

Increasing the text size

We have used style sheets throughout, and users can increase or decrease the size of the text by using the browser 'Text Size' options in the 'View' menu.

Other features

HTML heading tags are used to convey the document layout and to make it simpler for screen readers to navigate using a list of headers. Navigation menus are marked up as HTML lists which ensures that the number of links in the list is read out at the start and also that they can be skipped easily.

Our pages are optimised to be viewed at a screen resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels, however the design also accommodates users viewing at 800 x 600 pixels. For more information and advice on how to change your browser, computer, keyboard and mouse to make this and other websites more accessible, please visit the BBC website 'My web My way'

Commitment to accessibility

We acknowledge the importance of the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) of 1995, the World Wide Web Consortiums' (W3C) Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) and Section 508 of the U.S.A. Federal Electronic Rehabilitation Act all of which state that provision must be made to ensure that all products and services are accessible to disabled users.

At Leuka, we are committed to making our websites inclusive. We will continue to review, test and modify our web provision for usability and accessibility, and aim to comply to guidelines as part of our ongoing commitment.

Standards compliance

Our pages conform to a minimum Level 1 (A) compliance as specified by the Web Content Accessibility guidelines. Where possible the majority of Level 2 (AA) and 3 (AAA) requirements are also met.

If you would like to comment or provide feedback on other ways you would like us to make the site more accessible to you, please email us.
