Geoffrey Insurance's commitment to accessibility for all.
Geoffrey Insurance has built this site to be accessible and usable to as many people as possible. This website is designed and built with full consideration of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) set by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) as part of their Web Accessibility Initiative.
Our aim is for the whole site to be to the highest WCAG standards. Accordingly this website aims to facilitate equal access to people with disabilities using technologies other than standard web browsers, such as screen readers.
Browser compatibility
Our site fully utilises CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) to separate content from presentation, reducing file sizes and increasing download speeds. Most images have been regulated to the CSS document and where possible text alternatives for graphical content have been provided.
It is designed and tested for the latest and most popular browsers to minimise compatibility issues for users.
Navigational aids
All pages of the site are navigable with the keyboard, mouse, and other assistive devices such as BrowseAloud.
You can import your own style sheet onto this website for your ease of access. This can be done in Internet Explorer by following these steps:
- Select ‘Tool’
- Select ‘Internet Options’
- Select the ‘Accessibility’ button
- Choose the corresponding checkboxes to ignore the font sizes, font styles and ignore colours
- Then to use your style sheet, whilst in the same window, select the checkbox ‘Format document using my style sheet’
- Finally select your style sheet and select ‘OK’
[Note that from stage 3 you can alternatively simply choose to ignore the site’s colours, fonts and text sizes].
Adjusting Text Sizes
To quickly adjust the size of the text follow these steps in Internet Explorer:
- Select ‘View’
- Then select ‘Text Size’
- Then choose your preferred text size
