Navigating our websites

Our websites contain many links to useful information which are coloured to make them easily noticeable. Links to non-Bupa websites and downloadable files such as PDF and MS Word .doc will open in new windows. When your mouse cursor hovers over these links, a short descriptive text box will normally appear, notifying you that a new window will be opened.

For non-mouse users and those that use screen readers, Bupa website pages can be accessed using your standard keyboard shortcuts and links are made as descriptive as possible.

Customising our Bupa websites

Bupa website pages are designed so that you can change the style, size and colour of the font used, as well as the background colour. If you wish to do so, please see the guides for some of the most popular web browsers below.
