Technical Requirements

Our website is optimised for modern web browsers and operating systems. Please note the following technical considerations:

  • JavaScript Requirement: Our site relies on JavaScript to provide a dynamic and interactive user experience. We strongly recommend enabling JavaScript in your browser to access all features and functionality of the website.
  • Browser Compatibility: We strive to ensure compatibility with a wide range of browsers. However, for the best experience, we recommend using the latest versions of popular browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge.
  • Responsive Design: Our site is built with responsive design principles, allowing it to adapt to various screen sizes and devices, including desktops, tablets, and smartphones.

Accessibility Commitment

We are committed to making our website as accessible as possible to all users, including those with disabilities. While our site requires JavaScript, we continually work to improve its accessibility through the following measures:

  1. Semantic HTML: We use proper HTML structure to ensure that content is logically organized and can be easily interpreted by assistive technologies.
  2. Keyboard Navigation: We strive to make all functionality available via keyboard navigation for users who cannot use a mouse.
  3. Alternative Text: We provide descriptive alternative text for images to ensure that users with visual impairments can understand the content.
  4. Color Contrast: We aim to maintain sufficient color contrast ratios to improve readability for users with visual impairments.
  5. Continual Improvement: We regularly review and update our website to enhance its accessibility and user experience for all visitors.

If you encounter any accessibility issues or have suggestions for improvement, please contact us. We value your feedback and are committed to making our website accessible to the widest possible audience.
