Website Accessibility

We have made every effort to ensure that our website is accessible as possible. When the website was first launched in 2006, it was been built to adhere to the current web accessibility standards as set by the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium – the web's governing body). Our website generally acheives AA compliance against the Web Content Accessibility Guidleines v1 (WCAG) as defined by the W3C's Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI).

As with all emerging technology, things will change so we are always keen to hear your suggestion on how we can improve our website's accessibility.
