Accessibility Tips

In addition to the steps we have taken to make the software accessible to everyone; many people are likely to get the most accessible experience of using this site by customising their computer to suit their individual needs. For example: to get the site read to them, to change its colour scheme, or increase the size of its fonts.

We recommend you visit the excellent BBC My Web, My Way(External link) site containing videos of how these customisations might suit you and covers topics such as personalising the web settings for people with:
