    I am a disabled person and a carer or friend of a disabled person and a general supporter of disabled access.

    Good

    Really good venue for making adjustments to allow disabled visitors and carers access to theatre. I just think they need more than one disabled toilet. Or... need to make it clear the disabled toilet isn’t for everyone.

    Excellent

    Good disabled access via the side door. Does mean you can’t purchase show merchandise though as this is sold at the front. Also ice cream is sold down by the stage and drinks are sold in the bar.

    Good

    On bus routes. Free on street parking for blue badge holders or a multi story very near for everyone else.

    It’s not a bad toilet. But there’s only one and everyone uses it regardless of it being a disabled toilet.

    Good

    They’re fairly helpful but as a disabled guest bursting for the toilet they were fairly reluctant to help me gain access ahead of the people who just didn’t want to queue for the other men’s/ladies toilets.
