There is a lift from the main entrance (automatic doors) to the ground floor. The lift can accommodate most wheelchairs, but unfortunately cannot accommodate large powered scooters. We have two wheelchairs which can be used by visitors. There are two floors, with a lift to both floors. Our plan for safely evacuating visitors with mobility difficulties in the event of an emergency is by transfer to an evac chair. Audio/visual presentations are subtitled. There are written transcripts of all audio presentations. There is a hearing loop fitted to the main reception desk. Companion notes for visitors with a visual impairment and their friends and carers are available. Amongst the displays are several objects to touch.
