Standards compliance
We seek to meet the Priority A, AA, and selected AAA guidelines
of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. Our website is
tested on a regular basis using a combination of automated tools to
identify potential problem areas and manual testing to ensure we
meet the spirit as well as the letter of the W3C's accessibility
guidelines.
Links to other websites
Please note that the British Marine Federation website contains
links to other Internet websites. Those websites are not owned,
operated, controlled or reviewed by the British Marine Federation,
and their webpages may not be fully compliant with our
Accessibility Policy. The Accessibility Policies of those websites,
and not the British Marine FederationAccessibility Policy, define
the accessibility features and any questions or concerns should be

Alternative text
Images on our website have alternative text attributes, often
known as alt text. This means that when an image is used on a web
page to convey information its content is also described in the alt
text. When you use alt text the image can be understood by text
browsers and assistive technologies such as screen readers. If an
image is used for simply decorative purposes, the text attribute
for the image is left empty in line with accepted best
practice.
Readable and resizable fonts and layout
The fonts on www.britishmarine.co.uk have been chosen for their
legibility on computer screens. The layout has been designed to
stretch to fill the width of the browser, so that you can resize
the browser to suit your own viewing preferences.
Print page options:
A print page facility is provided on every page of the website.
The size of the print text will reflect the text option you have
selected within the website. For example, if you have large print
selected on the website, the print page facility will print in
large print.
