ACCESSIBILITY

The MoD is committed to ongoing efforts to make our website more accessible and compliant with WCAG 2.0 standards. In addition to a simplified website layout, designed to be user-friendly, we have also added website accessibility tools. The accessibility features on this website are handled by a plug-in called “One Click Accessibility”. The features of this plug-in can be accessed through the icon on the top-right corner of the screen. Features include:

• Increase and decrease text size
• Grayscale
• High contrast
• Negative contrast
• Light background
• Underline links
• Readable font

Users can click on one or more of these options to toggle them on or off. A reset button is located at the bottom of the menu.

This plug-in does not include an audio-reader feature. If using a third-party program to read this site, it is recommended to enable a skip-link function if available. All images on this site include alternative descriptive text.
