Access Keys
Keyboard shortcuts are intended to help users who have difficulty in using pointing devices such as a mouse.
This website uses the UK government access key system and the following information details each of the keyboard shortcut commands available to you.
This means that disabled users have maximum interactivity with a website if, like many people, they only use the keyboard to navigate a website. In some cases some people cannot use the mouse, and so must rely on intuitive keyboard access controls which circumvent the need for the "point and click" methodology of the mouse.
