What is Accessibility?
Accessibility in this instance refers to ensuring that content of this site can be read by everyone, regardless of the type of technology used and any disabilities that the user has. People with disabilities (such as visual or hearing impairments) are often at a disadvantage when browsing a web site because they have not been accounted for in the design of the site. We have endeavoured to make this site accessible to everyone.
