Accessibility

In keeping with our policy of customers first, and our obligations under the DDA (Disability Discrimination Act), we will ensure that our website is accessible to people who have visual, hearing, motor or cognitive impairments.

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

As a standard, we employ all the following methods to ensure our site meets the accessibility needs of as many people as possible:

Browsealoud is available to ensure that all pages can be read out loud to any visitor
All pictures have an alternative text description
We are committed to 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
We do not use all-capitals for emphasis
We use a hierarchy of heading markups i.e an <h1> tag for main headings, <h2> for secondary headings etc which makes it easier for screen readers to work out the stucture of a page
Our site can be viewed in a logical order when all styling is turned off
Helping you make your computer easier to use

If there is an instance when our site does not meet the need of a specific disabled user group we will make changes to our currrent content, wherever appropriate, so that we can become more inclusive to a wider audience. Please contact us if this is the case sales@oakmain.co.uk
