ACCESSIBILITY

Our centre is wheelchair accessible. We have disabled bathroom facilities including overhead hoist and ‘wet room’ shower with shower chair and grab rails. Our superb kitchen ladies cater for all dietary needs.

PRE COURSE PREPARATION

In advance of the course we will discuss your specific needs with you, and tailor the course accordingly. Group leaders are very often surprised by how much their group is capable of with the support of our staff. You are more than welcome to visit the centre itself and discuss your requirements with us. This is particularly useful for first time visitors.

Our ethos
