Accessibility

This site has been designed with a commitment to comply with best practice in accessibility for visitors with disabilities in accordance with the  Disability Discrimination Act (DDA). In addition this site complies with the E-Government guidelines on website accessibility including the Website Accessibility Initiatives (WAI) 'A' Rating standard.

Further information about your rights and the DDA can be found here at www.direct.gov.uk. In addition here is some information particularly about how the DDA applies to websites at www.web-accessibility.org.uk.

Accessibility features

As part of the E-government Guidelines we have incorporated scaleable text sizes for people with visual impairments and the elderly and access keys for users with motor disabilities who may find using a mouse difficult.

Scaleable text

Screen text sizes may be scaled according to the needs of the user. This is controlled by the users browsers and can be altered by accessing the  'View' menu and selecting 'Text Sizes'.

Access keys

Access keys are a method or navigating the website without the need for a mouse, this is particularly important to users with motor based disabilities who often find using the mouse very difficult.
