We recognise the need to provide a truly accessible web site for all our visitors and as such have ensured that this site has been designed and coded to W3C AAA Accessibility standards.
Adjusting Text Size
We have coded the site to allow you to adjust the size of the text to suit your needs. In Internet Explorer, text can be enlarged going to ‘View’, ‘Text-Size’ and selecting the size required. In most modern browsers such as Mozilla, you can change text size by holding down CTRL and pressing the + or – buttons.
Access Keys
If you do not use a mouse, you can navigate this site using a set of keyboard shortcuts, known as Access Keys. If you use Internet Explorer, you can go to a web page assigned to an access key by pressing ALT and the access key, then press the 'Return'/'Enter' key. In Mozilla, you just need to press ALT and the access key. Please note that for an access key to work, there must be an active link to that page on the page you are currently viewing (e.g. typically from a menu bar).
The main pages within the site are assigned the following keyboard shortcuts:

Printing Pages
If you wish to print a page within this site, simply press CTRL & P on your keyboard. Each page on the site features a special ‘print-friendly’ style sheet which will automatically remove unnecessary images and navigation elements from the page, negating the need for an alternative ‘Print Friendly’ version.
CSS & XHTML
All site coding is valid XHTML with CSS used to control layout and design, ensuring this site is compatible not only with current browser technology (including mobile phones and screen readers), but also future browser technologies.
