Some of our PDFs and Word documents are not fully accessible.

The accessibility regulations do not require us to fix PDFs or other documents published before 23 September 2018 if they’re not essential to providing our services.

In the future we plan to limit the use of PDF or Word documents on our website. Instead we will aim to create accessible web pages and will only use PDFs if it is essential.

New PDFs that are published will meet digital accessibility standards.
