Accessibility

The Wild East Devon team who manage Seaton Wetlands are keen to improve access to Seaton Wetlands for all visitors. Seaton Wetlands is working with Heritage Ability, a scheme that makes visitor attractions in the South West more accessible for disabled people and British Sign Language (BSL users). Heritage Ability have provided site staff and volunteers with Disability and Deaf Awareness training, A Visual Story available online to help autistic people and people with PTSD feel more at ease before their visit and British Sign Language (BSL) self-led guided tours for Deaf visitors. Heritage Ability has also provided an off-road mobility scooter (Tramper) available for hire, in conjunction with its sister project Countryside Mobility. Seaton Wetlands is also able to offer guided visits for visually impaired visitors
