Accessible websites help all users to have a positive experience online. People should be able to easily access or benefit from the information on them.

Our website has been audited by the , which checks digital content meets best practice accessibility standards. DAC tests for disabilities including:

  • mobility impairments
  • blindness
  • deafness
  • Asperger’s
  • learning disabilities

Plain English

We write clearly and simply, so users can understand quickly and easily.

PDFs

Colour contrast

People who are colour blind or dyslexic cannot see the difference between certain colour combinations. The colour of our website text contrasts with the background so that our content is easily readable.
