Overview

There are accessible toilets on every floor, but the building was not designed with access in mind. When the lifts break (which is often), wheeled visitors have to go a very long way round to use a ramp. But at least we don't have to leave the venue to do it - the ramps are built in and don't have to be brought out specially. All the theatres have good seats for wheelchair users, which is very pleasing. Portable seats are in theory available but you have to ask and it will depend which staff member you get. During busy times there's a lot of queuing and you aren't allowed to leave one party member in the queue and go and sit in the few seats that are provided. So if standing for long periods is difficult, make sure to go outside of school holidays, or bring a portable chair of your own!

Transport & Parking

The car park (which goes up to £6 all day or £13 with the evening) is about a five minute walk when you include inside the car park and going around the building. There is good provision of Disabled Access spaces.

Staff are very helpful and go out of their way to aid visitors when asked.

Anything else you wish to tell us?

Reliable lifts would be the first request. Other things involve major structural changes and are not really viable.
