This website has been designed and developed with accessibility for disabled and older users in mind.

Features include:

  • No moving, flashing or blinking content as this can be problematic for people with visual processing disorders or epilepsy
  • Single column presentation to aid people with low vision who may use a screen reader or enlarged text, and for mobile device users
  • Sufficient contrast between text and background, in black and white, to help with readability for people with low vision or colour blindness
  • Use of whitespace and uncluttered layout, to make the content easier to scan and understand
  • Use of alternative text for images
  • Making effort to ensure that content is clear and understandable to the broadest audience possible, including people with cognitive and learning disabilities.
