How accessible this website is

We know some parts of this website are not fully accessible:

  • The navigation menu, which appears when the site is viewed in a smaller screen is not in the tab index.  This make is very difficult for screen reader users and switch access users on small screens to navigate within the site.
  • One of the lists in the on the about us page is not marked up properly as a list.  This makes the list structure more difficult to understand for screen reader users who cannot see the screen.
