Accessibility is important to BG
BG is committed to producing a website for the widest possible
audience, including users who have disabilities. We have developed
this site to ensure compliance with priority level one criteria
of W3C’s Web Accessibility Initiative, and achieved many
additional level two and three criteria. To aid visually impaired
users, both font sizes and colours can be altered throughout
the website to suit viewing preference.
Font sizes
Visually impaired users may wish to use a larger font size. To
alter the font size throughout the BG website, in Internet Explorer,
select 'View', then 'Text Size', and choose your preferred size.
In Netscape select View, then Text Zoom, and choose your preferred
percentage size.
Colours and stylesheets
While we have tried to make the pages of this site as clear and
readable as possible, some users may wish to alter the colour of
the pages or import their own stylesheets to facilitate viewing.
To achieve this, in Internet Explorer select 'Tools', then 'Internet
options', and then 'Accessibility'. You can then select from the
three colour formatting checkboxes, or choose the 'User style sheet'
option.
In Netscape select 'Edit', then 'Preferences' and then 'Appearance'.
You will then be given the choice to specify your own colours and
fonts.
