Accessibility
Many Internet users with disabilities find web sites difficult or even impossible to use simply because of the way they are designed.
We are aware of the types of adaptive technology used by people with disabilities and have designed the pages on our web site to ensure compatibility with as many of these systems as possible. This includes keeping text clear, formatting layouts and tables, and making sure links adequately describe where they go.
We have built this web site to meet the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) Content Accessibility Guidelines set by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and we aim, wherever possible, to ensure we conform to 'Double-A' standards. If you come across a part of our site that is difficult to use please tell us about it.
