Browsealoud

This website incorporates Browsealoud, which makes websites more accessible to people with reading difficulties. It uses simple speech, reading and translation tools.

Browsealoud is a free service.

Links

We aim to ensure all text links are written so that they make sense when read out of context.  We will aim to clearly explain where the link will take the user.

Video and audio files

We will aim to ensure that videos have captions explaining any dialogue, and that transcripts are provided for any audio files.

Accessible documents

Most older PDF documents may not be fully accessible to screen reader software.  Some documents may not have a natural language specified, including the Annual Report.  The Trust will seek to improve accessibility of documents.
