Other aspects of this site, configured for accessibility:
Tables normally have alternative descriptions for use in browsers for the partially sighted
Most images have ALT
descriptions for speech based browsers
Most navigation elements are plain text and we have provided text alternatives to graphics on the site.
Those with poor sight may be able to increase the size of the text on screen.
See the table below, which outlines the procedure for most popular browsers.
If your browser is not listed in the table, the following general guideline may help: Looking under the "View" selection on the main menu, you should find an option called "Text Zoom" or "Text Magnification" or "Text Size" or "Font Size".
From that point it should be relatively simple to find and select an additional sub menu option that adjusts text size to your needs.
How to find out what Browser you are using: Generally this is found under the Help section of the browser tool bar under 'about' similar.
