Accessibility
The Environmental Research Group is working towards providing websites which are fully accessible to all users with disabilities.
This website is built using code compliant with World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standards for XHTML and CSS 2.0. The pages display correctly with currently available internet browsers, and the use of standard XHTML code means that future versions of browsers will also display them correctly.
Where possible, all of these pages have been validated for XHTML transitional 1.0 and level AA of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0. As a result the pages will comply with the Disability Discrimination Act which ensures that websites are accessible to blind and disabled users.
