Accessibility
We want you to enjoy using our website, and to be able to access the information you need quickly and easily. With this in mind, we’re continually working to update our website to make it as accessible as possible to everyone who uses it.
We aim to meet the AA accessibility standard, as laid out by W3C in its Web Accessibility Initiative. Achieving this standard demonstrates that our website has a high level of accessibility for users.
PDF documents
We use PDF (Portable Document Format) documents on our website to make certain information available for you to download and view. PDFs are a common file format used on the internet. If your browser does not open PDFs, you can download the Adobe Acrobat Reader from the Adobe website.
The accessibility of PDFs has improved in recent years for those using assistive technologies such as screen readers, navigation through the keyboard and enhanced screen viewing. You can find information about using these features on the Adobe website.
