Accessibility help on the GAWDS site
We have tried to ensure that this website is as accessible as possible. If you are having a problem please contact us, and we will do our best to help.
Access Keys
Only one access key is used on the site: accesskey 1 puts the focus on the first field of any form, including search forms (i.e., Alt 1 on a PC running Windows, Ctrl 1 on Mac, there will be an equivalent key combination on alternative platforms/browsers). A short explanation of the accesskey attribute can be found on the MCU tips section.
Browser Preferences
Changing the preferences on your Web browser may help to make the site easier to use. It is possible to change text size and colour as well as background colours by making changes in the preferences or options section of your browser. The exact details of how to do this will be different for each type of browser so experimentation may be the order of the day.
The presentation of this website can be changed by turning off the style sheet in the browser preferences, or by substituting your own style sheet.
Lois Wakeman has a very good page that covers a range of issues related to customising the setting of your web browser to make pages more accessible.
