Resizable text

Because you may wish to alter the font size on the screen to make it easier to read, we offer a range of options for text re-sizing.

At the top right hand corner of our website we have provided a text re-sizing tool which you can use to select the text size that is most comfortable for your ease of reading.

Alternatively, if you are using Internet Explorer, you may follow these instructions:

  1. Select the ‘View’ menu
  2. Select ‘Text Size’ from the menu
  3. Click on the text size you wish to view

A further option to increase the size of the text is to press the ctrl key on the bottom left hand row of your keyboard and at the same time move the scroll wheel on your mouse. Move it upwards to increase the size of the text, or downwards to decrease the size of the text.

Where we have used images to convey information we have provided a text alternative, enabling you to access the information even the image the image does not load or if you have elected to view the website with the images switched off.
