Three carparks available. Use as much room as needed. Plenty of room for vehicle ramps out of the side or rear of vehicle. Use own transport.

Everything is wheelchair accessible. Hoists available. Changing rooms space. Plenty of seating. All tarmac paths. Ramped access where needed to hydrotherapy pool.

Changing room place. This means there is hoists and a bed available. The room is very big with plenty of space for chair, carers and hoist.

Very friendly with a genuine heart felt welcome. Nothing is to much trouble. They are happy to accompany you if you want to hold the animals or use the play park. They will show you how to use things. All are trained to use lifting equipment and do not panic during a meltdown.
