Accessibility

We are working hard to ensure that our website is available to as many users as possible.  This is an ongoing process and we will be continuing monitoring and updating the site to improve accessibility for all.

All pages have been designed so that the information is available to all users including those users with disabilities.  This design includes whereever possible a tableless approach using CSS Style Sheets.

Alternative text

All images on this site are accompanied by a brief alternative text which, where appropriate, identifies an image or its function. This alternative text (alt-text) is generally only visible when the browser's automatic image loading feature is turned off.

Links

All text links are written so that they make sense when read out of context. Links to external sites will open in a new browser window and where these links do not appear in the menu will be marked with an External Link image.

Documents

Links to documents will open in a new browser window.

PDF files can be read using Adobe Reader software, which is available for many different computer systems including Windows, Macintosh, Linux and Palm. To find out about accessible pdfs visit Access Adobe. For more help with Acrobat files generally and a link to download Acrobat Reader visit the Adobe site.

Text size

The text on this website has been styled using a non-fixed value in a style sheet. This means that users can easily change the text size using their browser settings.
