Navigation
Navigation menus are marked up as HTML lists. This ensures that the number of links in the list is read out at the start and it can be skipped easily.
Font size
We have provided tools at the foot of the homepage of the website to make the size of the body text of the site larger. You can also use your browser to set the text size. This can normally be done via the browser's View menu (Go to 'view', choose 'text size', and select the appropriate font size, for example 'larger').
Colour and Contrast
You can also find controls at the foot of the homepage to alter the colour and contrast of the entire website to better suit your needs.
However if you need to further customize how your browser views our website, much more detailed advice can be found by following the links below.

A description of every image is provided, either in the alt tag or on the page itself.
