We have worked hard to ensure that our web site meets the accessibilty needs of our visitors.
We offer several different site styles - standard, text-only and a high-contrast format for our visually impared visitors. Please note that our high-contrast style works best in browsers that comply more fully with modern standards e.g. Mozilla Firefox and Opera. Internet Explorer users may notice layout issues with the high contrast stylesheet - this is a problem with Internet Explorer's lack of compliance with the latest CSS standards which are designed to improve accessibility.
If you are interested in trying either Mozilla Firefox or Opera, these can be downloaded, free of charge.
