Accessibility

How we try to make our website accessible for everyone, and how you can get the best experience from our website.

  • Larger text size and images

    We’ve designed our website with large font sizes to make text easier to read. If you would like to increase it further, Open the Chrome browser. icon in the upper-right corner of the browser window. Near the top of the drop-down menu that appears, you can use the + (plus) or - (minus) in the Zoom section of the menu to increase or decrease the font size. Chrome's default zoom setting is 100%


    You can also zoom in to magnify the text and images on the page by using the 'View' menu in your browser, or by pressing 'Ctrl' and '+' on the keyboard to zoom in and 'Ctrl' and '-' to zoom out.

  • Change background or text colour

    Our website aims to meet WCAG 2.0 recommended colour contrast ratios, making text easier to read. 


    We know that some people find it easier to read text when the background and font are certain colours.


    For example, dark green text on a pale yellow background can be easier to read if you have dyslexia. You can download free fonts like Dyslexie and OpenDyslexic. 

    Many browsers now enable you to change the colour of the background and text of your screen. 

  • Assistive technology

    If you use assistive technology, like a screen-reader, we want to make sure that our website’s technology and content works together to give you the best possible experience.


    Our website will be compatible with:


    screenreaders

    screen magnifiers

    speech recognition software on your device.
