We recognise the importance of providing a website that is accessible to all user groups, including those with a disability or impairment. Wherever possible, we have included simplified features to make our content available to anyone who is using assistive technology or might otherwise find the standard features difficult to use.

We aim to provide full accessibility to all content on our website. Third-party content, eg other websites we provide hyperlinks to, may not be as accessible as our website.

Help or feedback

We are committed to ongoing accessibility improvements.

If you would like to give us some feedback, or are having difficulty accessing this website for any reason, please let us know and we will do our best to resolve the issue.

You can contact us by emailing info@crombiewilkinson.co.uk or by sending a letter to the Marketing Team, Clifford House, 19 Clifford Street, York, YO1 9RJ.

Accessibility features

We have included a number of features to improve usability and accessibility. They are set out below.

Text Resizing

If you have a general problem with the size of text on websites (ours and others) there are four ways of increasing the size:

  1. Change Operating System Preferences
    You can change settings within Windows or Macintosh operating system to increase the size of text used - this makes all text on your computer larger (not just websites)
  2. Change Browser Preferences
    You can change settings within your browser to increase the default size of "normal" text - this has the effect of enlarging the text on all the websites that you visit (provided those websites have been built in an accessible way)
    • Internet Explorer 6
      From the top menu bar, select View and point to Text size
    • Internet Explorer 7
      From the menu bar underneath the search field, select Page and point to Text size
    • Mozilla, Firefox and most other browsers (PC)
      Hold down the CTRL key and press + Decrease text size: Hold down the CTRL key and press -
    • Macintosh (Safari, Firefox and most other browsers)
      Hold down the Command key and press + Decrease text size: Hold down the Command key and press -
  3. Zoom-in (Modern Browsers only)
    You can use modern browsers to enlarge any web-page - the effect is to zoom-in to the page just like enlarging an image. All "modern" browsers support this feature: Mozilla, Firefox, Safari, and Internet Explorer 8 (but unfortunately not Internet Explorer versions 6 or 7)
  4. Change Size only for this Website
    You can use the font enlargement controls on this page to increase the text size of this website (which only effects this website)

This can be activated through the 'Text larger / smaller' links above. Please note, our text resizing feature is dependent on Javascript being turned on.
