Accessibility

We're committed to making our website equally accessible to all users, to help in this we aim to make our website compliant with W3C's web content accessibility guidelines to AA level.

Our site is coded so you can easily change the appearance of text, fonts or background colours.

For information about customising your browser, see theW3C Guidelinepages.

If you have any questions about our website, feel free to get in touch using our contact form and send your comments to the digital team.

Design - how we've tried to help

• Page layouts are clear and used consistently
• Colours chosen to be contrasting and not disadvantage those with colour blindness
• The site responds to the device you are using to give you the best user experience
• 文本编码所以它可以很容易地调整大小
• Images include an alternative text description
• Links to external websites and downloadable files will open in a new browser window or tab, allowing you to switch between content easily
• All downloads are in PDF format - these are designed to be accessible.

These just highlight some of the considerations we take when designing our sites.
