    1. Accessibility

      The Quick Links section allows user direct, and clear labelled shortcuts to popular content, which reduces the number of steps needed to navigate the website. This also supports the Operable Principle of POUR, making navigation more efficient for users relying on keyboard navigation or assistive technologies.

    5. Search
