The Breadcrumb Trail
We use a navigational
aid on all of our web pages known as a breadcrumb trail.
The breadcrumb trail
is a set of clickable links which enables web users to trace their placement
within the website.
It also tells users who join the website from a search
engine, whereabouts they are within the website.
As a user moves through the
website, a link is added to the Breadcrumb Trail at each level.
The Breadcurmb
Trail is located at the top of every page and looks something like this:
Home > Health and Social Care > Disabilities > Learning Disabilities
