Accessibility
The accessibility features of this website include:
- The use of Valid HTML (check it - only pages with errors will be shown)
- The use of semantically correct HTML to structure the content for all devices
- The use of common browser behaviours (underlined links in obvious colours, standard form elements with labels etc.)
- The use of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) to completely separate content from design
- The use of visible "Skip links" on every page to skip past the navigation information to the main content when using mobile phones or assistive devices such as screen readers
- Consistent page labelling between navigation links, titles and headings
- Alternative text for all important visual elements
- Accessible forms for use by any device
- No "Self referencing" links (look in the footer, the "Accessibility" link is not active)
- The use of user-friendly and appropriate page addresses
We do open some external links and links to other documents (PDFs etc.) in a new window but we use the Title attribute to let you know when this happens. You can always use your browsers other features (e.g. open in a new Tab) to over-ride this behaviour.
If you have difficulty reading the text, please use your browser's text size function to increase the text size.
In Internet Explorer or FireFox, please go to View | Text Size in the menu bar or using the keyboard, hold the Ctrl key and press the + or - key to increase or decrease the text size.
If you have any difficulties using the website, please contact us.
