Accessibility help

There are many ways in which you can change your browser, computer, keyboard and mouse settings to make websites more accessible to you such as:

• Making text larger in your browser
• Magnifying the screen
• Making the mouse pointer easier to see
• Using your keyboard instead of your mouse
• Using assisted technologies such as a screen reader.

For example, to make text larger in both Internet Explorer and Firefox:

• Press 'Ctrl' and '+' to increase the text size.
  'Ctrl' and '0' returns you to the default 'normal' size.

Alternatively you can set a minimum text size for all pages you visit as follows:

• Internet Explorer: select 'Text Size' from the 'View' menu and choose your preferred text size (largest, larger, medium, smaller and smallest).
  
• Firefox: select 'Options' from the 'Tools' menu, select the 'Content' tab and then click on the 'Advanced' button in the Fonts & Colours box. Click on the 'Minimum font size' box and select the required font size. Click on OK and then OK again.
