The website relies on Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) to control
presentation and layout that provides faster download times and
improved searching. The website design fits a resolution of 800
pixel width or greater.
Ease of Use
This site has been designed for use by all members of the
community, whether experienced internet users or not. The layout
has been created with visually impaired users in mind and is fully
compatible with browser-reading software. The site can be navigated
using the keyboard alone; hopefully making it easier to use for
physically disabled people.
Increasing text size
Some users might find screen text easier to read by increasing
the size at which text is displayed. To do this you can simply
adjust your browser's settings.
If you use Microsoft® Internet Explorer go to the VIEW menu, select
TEXT SIZE and then either LARGER or LARGEST. If you use a
Mozilla-based browser (such as Firefox), go to the VIEW menu, then
TEXT STYLE, then choose Increase until the text is whatever size
you require. Alternatively, hold down the Control (Ctrl) key and
use the + and - keys to increase or decrease the text until you
find a size you are comfortable with.
