Navigating our Bupa websites
Our websites contain many links to useful information which are coloured dark blue to make them easily noticeable. Links to non-Bupa websites and downloadable files such as PDF and Word will open in new windows. When your mouse hovers over these links, a short descriptive text box will appear.
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.
