Design

The design of our website improves accessibility using the features listed below. They have been applied to the majority of website pages and are being rolled out to the remaining pages.

High Contrast

For users who have low vision, we would recommend using the Google Chrome browser and a plugin called “High Contrast”.

Colour Vision Deficiency (CVD)

For users who have a form of colour vision deficiency, we would recommend using the Google Chrome browser and a plugin called “Dalton”. This offers support for the three most common bands of CVD.

Text Resizing

The modern browsers we support (Firefox 3.6 and later, Internet Explorer 7 and later, Safari 4.0 and later, and the latest version of Chrome) feature in-built accessibility tools, including zoom and text-resizing.

You can change the text size or adjust the page zoom in your browser by following these instructions:

• PC/Internet Explorer 7 – from the menu bar underneath the search field, select “Page” and point to “Text Size”
