Ground floor accessible to wheelchairs, with newly installed disabled toilet with baby changing facilities.
After our recent programme of building improvements, the building is more welcoming, with workshop, kitchen/cafe and disabled toilet facilities on the ground floor. There is an upper floor, which the group occasionally use for workshops, so we gather information on mobility etc in the booking process to help us ensure we locate the workshops appropriately. However, if you are unable to access an upper floor, it is worth bringing this to our attention separately via email or a telecphone call , just to be sure we are ready to accommodate your access requirements.
