Alternative Style
Most modern browsers all share the most common accessibility tools, here is a list of useful features:
Incremental Search
Incremental search allows you to progressively search a web page for a particular word or phrase on a page.
Spatial navigation
Hitting tab will jump you to each of the items you can interact with on any page. Holding the SHIFT key and then pressing tab will take you to the previous item.
Caret Navigation (Internet Explorer and Firefox only)
Instead of using a mouse to select text and move around within a webpage, you can use standard navigation keys on your keyboard: Home, End, Page Up, Page Down & the arrow keys. This feature is named after the caret, or cursor, that appears when you edit a document.
To turn this feature on, press the F7 key at the top of your keyboard and choose whether to enable the caret on the tab you are viewing or all your tabs.
Space bar
Pressing the space bar on a web page will move the page you are viewing down to the next visible part of the page.
To enhance your experience, this website includes the UserWay accessibility plugin. This tool is designed to improve usability and accessibility for a wide range of users, including those with visual, motor, or cognitive impairments.
The plugin provides features such as adjustable text sizes, contrast and color controls, keyboard navigation enhancements, screen reader support, and other accessibility customisations. These tools can help tailor the browsing experience to better meet individual needs.
You can activate the accessibility menu by selecting the icon located at the bottom-left corner of the screen.
While this tool can enhance accessibility, we are committed to improving the accessibility of the website itself.
For more information about how this tool works and the features it offers, please visit: https://userway.org
Parts of this website may not be fully accessible. For example:
This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.2 AA standard, due to the non-compliances listed below.
Heading elements are not in a sequentially-descending order
WCAG 2.4.6 Headings and Labels: Properly ordered headings that do not skip levels convey the semantic structure of the page, making it easier to navigate and understand when using assistive technologies.
Missing ‘Autocomplete’ attributes on form inputs
WCAG 1.3.5 Identify Input Purpose: There may be instances on third-party embedded forms where fields are missing a valid autocomplete=”…” attribute. These can help auto fill fields, such as search forms with content that the user has previously entered. In some cases autocomplete is not needed, in these cases autocomplete should still be declared, but with an ‘off’ setting.
Some SVG images are missing recommended attributes
WCAG 1.1.1 Non text content: while all decorative images added to the websites theme have roles defined, SVG graphics uploaded to the site post-launch may not include the recommended role and aria-label attributes.
Instances where a placeholder attribute has been used as a label
WCAG 2.5.3 Label in Name: Some third-party embedded forms may not include labels correctly attributed to form fields. While a label may be present, it may lack the for/id attribute pairing required to attribute a form label to a specific form input.
Some of our PDFs and other non-HTML documents may not be fully accessible. For example, they may not be structured so they are accessible to a screen reader, may be missing text alternatives for images, or may not be fully navigable using a keyboard.
We are working to improve the accessibility of these documents where possible. Where documents are not accessible, we aim to provide accessible alternatives on request.
