Accessibility
We have designed this site to make it as accessible as possible for all users. However you may wish to alter the way our website looks. Below we have listed a number of features that you are able to change with step-by-step instructions.
Standards
This site has been created to meet with the following accessibility standards:
Changing the text sizes
You may want to change the text size on this website so the fonts display larger. You can do this by using the text size menu on your browser menu by following these instructions: In Internet Explorer, select Text Size from the View menu item. Then choose the preferred size. In Netscape Navigator, select Text Zoom from the View menu item. Then choose the preferred size. The text of the site will change to reflect your choice.
Navigating this website
This site has been designed so that it is easy-to-use and simple to navigate. The main navigation includes all the main sections of the website and runs across the top of each page. By clicking on any of these items you will be taken to a specific section of the website, where the navigation is displayed on the left side, with further 'highlight' options on the right hand side. Choosing a section will also reveal any further content pages within a section. This style of navigation is consistent throughout the site for your ease of use.
Access keys

Images and alt tags
