Our accessibility approach
Our aim is to make this website usable by as many people as possible. This includes enabling users to adjust colours, contrast settings and fonts using their browser or assistive tools, zoom the page up to 200 percent without loss of content or functionality, and access content using screen reader software including current versions of JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver.
We have also worked to ensure that the language used across the website is clear and easy to understand.
For further guidance on customising your device to meet accessibility needs, AbilityNet provides practical advice for users with disabilities.
Known accessibility limitations
We know that some parts of this website are not fully accessible. Images of artworks do not currently have alt text descriptions so they cannot be read by screen readers. Users are also unable to modify line height or spacing of text.
