We have attempted to construct this website with a level of accessibility in mind. The following areas have been considered to make the navigation around the website and interaction for visitors with the website as easy as possible.

Breadcrumb
The website employs a breadcrumb to define where a user is within the context of the navigational structure. The breadcrumb can be found on every page bar the home page, splash page and 404 error page located beneath the top navigation.
Site Map
A Site Map is available at http://www.archerygb.org/members/enquiries/site_map.php, you can also hold down the 'Alt' and 's' keys followed by 'Enter' to access it at any time from anywhere else on the site.
Links
Many links have title attributes which describe the link in greater detail, unless the text of the link already fully describes the target (such as the headline of an article). As far as possible, links are written to make sense out of context.
Images
Content images employ descriptive alt tags to ensure there is a description of an image where the image itself cannot be viewed by the user or computer.
Text Resizing
We have provided a text-resizing application to raise and lower the size of text on a page. This is located in the bottom right hand corner of the footer on all pages.
