This statement relates only to web pages under https://www.blastinjury.org.uk/ which are pages created on WordPress for the Blast Injury Conferences by the Royal British Legion Centre for Blast Injury Studies at Imperial College London.

How accessible the website is

We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. For example, that means you should be able to:

  • Navigate most of the website using just a keyboard

  • Resize to the size of your window, and display a readable text size whichever device you are using
  • Zoom in up to 175% without the text spilling off the screen

AbilityNet has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.
