If you have any questions or comments regarding accessibility, please feel free to contact the webteam.

Accessibility Features on this Website


Standards Compliance

    * Pages on this aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines to at least priority 1 level.
    * Pages on this site aim to conform to both the spirit and the letter of the United Kingdom Disability Discrimination Act 1995.
    * All pages on this site adhere to current web-standards, and validate as XHTML 1.0 Transitional.
    * This site uses validated CSS for all visual layout.
    * All pages on this site use structured semantic markup, meaning that if your browser or browsing device does not support CSS, the content of each page should still be readable.

Links

Linking text have been written to make sense out of context, and, wherever possible, title attributes which describe the link in greater detail have been added.
Images

All content images used in this site include descriptive ALT attributes. Purely decorative graphics are either applied using CSS, or include null ALT attributes.

Images used for headings are applied using CSS – since the heading exists as text behind the graphic, ALT attributes are unnecessary.

Font Sizes

You may change the font size of this document, either via the preference-settings of your browser, or using the buttons above.

Additionally, all modern browsers (with the exeption of Internet Explorer for Windows) allow resizing of text via the keyboard using CTRL ( CMND Key for Macintosh) and the '+' or '-' keys.
Navigation shortcuts

In addition to Access Keys (below), use of the Tab key to navigate through the page has been ordered to fascilitate ease-of-use for those who rely on the keyboard for navigation.
