Site Accessibility

Access for all

We aim to make our website accessible to as many people as possible. As part of Level 1 accessibility as set out by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) the following rules apply:

  • Alternative text versions of all graphics are provided to describe the image.
  • If tables or bar-charts, pie-charts etc are presented as graphics a text alternative is provided.
  • On each page where Adobe PDF files are used users are referred to full details on accessing these files.
  • Information is not provided in a way that makes colour vision or a colour monitor essential.

Access keys

All site functions can be accessed using the keyboard only. Shortcut keys allow fast navigation to important pages. We follow UK government recommendations for access key assignments.
