We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website so we make the text simple and easy to understand. We've also added the ReachDeck Toolbar to provide speech, reading, and translation support tools.
Our visitors can choose to have content read out loud. They can remove distracting content or add a screen tint with a reading pane to help them focus. They can translate our web pages into over 100 languages. And much more!
If you struggle with reading, have a visual impairment, or prefer to read in your own language, the ReachDeck Toolbar can help.
How to use the toolbar
To try it out for yourself, click on the orange stickman icon in the bottom left hand corner of our website to launch the toolbar.
To hear text read out loud, simply click on the first icon and hover your mouse over any text. From a touchscreen device you’ll have to click on the text to hear it. Or, to apply a screen tint click on the eye icon. To explore more, click on the question mark (?) icon to discover what each feature on the toolbar does.
Translating into other languages
For translation, click on the translation tool to bring down a drop-down menu of languages to choose from. To use the toolbar with downloaded publications, make sure it is open before you download. Once the toolbar is open it will stay available on the page after you have downloaded the publication you want.
