Are The Stores Compliant With Local Disability Requirements?

Whilst The Range tries to comply and in certain circumstances exceed DDA requirements, due to some stores position, existing planning requirements or age of store, the requirements for our disabled customers maybe not be fully met.

In these circumstances a member of staff will be made available to help at any time.

Is The Website Accessible To Disabled Users?

Accessibility statement: The Range recognises the importance of providing a website that is accessible to all the user groups, including the disabled, the visually impaired and those with motor deficiencies.

Our statement explains the accessibility features we have implemented to help you use our website. They help to improve navigation for use of screen readers, keyboard navigation and text-only browsers.

You can find out about this website's accessibility features in the sections below:

Please let us know if you have any questions or feedback regarding the accessibility of this site or if you experience any difficulty using it. You can email us at webcustomerservice@therange.co.uk or visit the Customer Service Site

General information

We've designed this site with accessibility in mind. Some of the general features include:
The use of clear, simple language which is easy to understand and is simple to use.
The use of common web conventions for ease of navigation through the website.
Avoiding the use of blinking or flickering elements.
The use of validated HTML and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)

Standards Compliance

We have strived to ensure our website conforms to level A compliance as specified by the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).

Background, text and colour

Careful use of text colours, size and background colours can help people with a range of visual impairments. Here's what we've done:

Colours

Our site is usable by anyone with colour deficient vision. We've checked the site's font and background colour to ensure there are no combinations against the different colour blindness conditions and ensured that all information is still clear.

Font and text size

While we've used clear, legible font for all text and headings you may need to alter the size. In the Firefox browser, select View, then Text Size, and then choose increase, or decrease. In the Explorer browser, click on Page and scroll down to Text Size.

Style sheets

This site uses cascading style sheets (CSS) for visual layout. Where possible, we've also made our website navigable, usable and readable if your browsing device does not support style sheets.

Scripts

Our website uses JavaScript to improve usability and the online shopping experience.

Links and navigation

Structuring a website so it is simple and streamlined to use helps to improve the experience for all. For example, placing page items in a logical order and making the website easy to navigate helps people with visual impairments, motor deficiencies and cognitive disabilities.

Navigation

We've made navigation links consistent between pages throughout the site. The site is also fully accessible using only the keyboard and can be navigated with scripting disabled.

Pop-up windows

Our website does not use pop-up windows unless they are appropriate. Acceptable cases, for example, are when it is important to see the browser window you've just navigated from in the background.

Forms and tables

Clearly labelled tables help readers to understand the content on a page and to fill in content into correct form fields.

Frames

Although there are a limited number of critical pages on this site which use frames, we try not to use frames as they are a barrier to accessibility. Any frames which we do use have descriptive titles to help screen readers to make sense of the content of the page.

Tables

We do occasionally use tables for layout but we ensure we follow WCAG guidelines. This means tables do not have any structural mark-up for visual purposes and they make sense when presented in a linear way.
