How accessible this website is
We know some parts of this website are not fully accessible:
- Most of the PDF documents on the site aren’t 100% accessible, mostly due to missing metadata. However, they can generally be read with screen-reader software and are searchable.
- We are aware of four videos that don't have captions and/or transcripts. These are being worked on and they will be available in Summer 2024.
