Overview

Accessible for those whose legs work a wee bit, but I suspect not for anyone wheelchair-bound.

Transport & Parking

You can park on the tarmac out the front of no. 3 and there are two spaces reserved for the Life Academy (3B), which I imagine you can use with prior notification. Buses to Morningside Road. Plenty of space on the tarmac for a taxi to turn.

Access

First of all, check the website for instructions on how to find 3B and get in. And don't worry - it's not nearly as complicated as it sounds! There are signs to keep you right. Once you get through the first gate (catch is at shoulder height when you're seated) you continue round the corner. Looks wide enough for a wheelchair. Then there's a ramp up a couple of feet featuring a tight 90 degree turn. I can do it on my (wee) scooter, but not sure a wheelchair user would be able to make the turn. Then you ring the bell for your therapist and they will come and open the door. Once inside, all three therapy rooms are on the level, with reasonable room to manouevre and furniture that can be shoved out of your way.

Toilets

The loo is on the same level as the therapy rooms, but there is a ledge to negotiate. No grab handles inside. Not enough space for a carer I don't think. The lock is quite high up.

Staff

My therapist (Elisa di Napoli) is fantastic, in fact it was she who suggested this location as opposed to the highly inaccessible premises she usually works from!
