It is important to us that we provide a website that is accessible to everyone. We have made every effort to ensure that our site is accessible to as many people as possible. We have made significant changes to achieve conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines / Web Accessibility Initiative.
A consistent navigation system has been integrated for ease of use, while meeting the needs of screen reader based browsing. Links have been written to make sense when taken out of context. A "skip to main content" link, with the Access Key 1 is available (for PC press ALT & Access Key then enter, for MAC press CONTROL & Access Key).
All images use alt or title tags to describe their content as it will be unreadable by screen readers. Media used only for decorative purposes contains an empty tag.
The font and background colours used create a significant level of contrast. The contrast aids in providing acceptable clarity regardless of the screen colour combination.
Scalable font sizes have been implemented to allow the re-sizing of text. In Internet Explorer go to View > Text size > Select the text size you require. For Netscape & Firefox browsers go to View > Text size > Select Increase or Decrease.
To adjust the size of your screen display go to Start > Settings > Control Panel > Display > Settings and change the 'pixel resolution' by using the sliding bar.
You can adjust the settings of your mouse and keyboard go to Start > Settings > Control Panel > Accessibility in Windows
