Accessibility
These features have been provided to help make our site as accessible as possible to as many people as possible
- All text should be resizable using your browser’s text-resize option
- If you use your own style sheet, it can be applied to allow changes in the site’s appearance without affecting the readability or accessibility of the information
- HTML heading elements have been used to represent page structure, supporting assistive technologies that allow page navigation from heading to heading
- All hyperlinks should make sense when read out of context, and hyperlinks change colour when the destination page has been visited

Visual design
- Cascading Style Sheets have been used to control the presentation of pages and properly structured markup has been used for content

- Relative font sizes are used, which allows users to resize text as needed
