We now have another new cinema in town! BUT THERE'S A PROBLEM!!! The Everyman is 1 year old and has 4 screens. There is accessible parking nearby, level access, a lift to the floor where all screens are located, hearing assistance and an accessible toilet. There is an identical fixed location for wheelchairs users in all 4 screens of the 2nd row [near the front] and to the left side of the screens. So if like me you cannot move your neck backwards you look below the screen level and I am unable to visit Everyman at Stratford upon Avon. I visited just after the opening and have discussed the wheelchair locations with staff but there is no choice and no reply from Head Office. Approved Document M says there should be a choice of seating for wheelchair users but with steps either side of all 4 screens this isn't happening. It would be easy to ramp one side of each screen - it is a long, low gradient level.
Disabled Access In and Around
Excellent
Level access from the street and a lift to the required floors. Hearing assistance.
Parking & Transport
Good
Everyman has an adjacent NCP car park with blue badge spaces but there are charges. There are local accessible buses, taxis and train stations.
Accessible Toilets
Excellent
Accessible toilet to Approved Document M standard with baby change included not separate.
Staff
Good
Everyman staff are available.
Additional Information
I have never visited the Everyman due to the location of wheelchair spaces.
