Accessibility FAQs

We’re dedicated to creating an inclusive environment and tailoring our sessions to ensure they’re accessible to everyone.

Can I bring my service dog to Woodrow?

Your furry friends are more than welcome, we ask that you inform us prior to your arrival and that you follow our Service dogs at Woodrow policy. This can be found here.

Are able to bring our own equipment for young people with sensory needs?

We would ask that you bring any personal equipment an individual may require to make their stay as comfortable as possible.

What adaptable equipment do you have?

We have a range of equipment to make our activities inclusive.

Is your swimming pool accessible?

Yes. Our swimming pool is fully accessible for all swimmers and we have a hoist to help guide you in and out of the pool.

How accessible are your activities?

We recognise many people have varying needs – some will be physical impairing mobility, whereas others may have neurodiverse needs. All our activities are adaptable and inclusive, and as long as we know your needs in advance, we can discuss with you how to support these.

Are your buildings wheelchair accessible?

Yes, and in part. Our Leisure Centre is fully accessible, with a lift to move between levels. Our Manor House is limited due to its Grade II listing, however, we do have zones where wheelchairs can move freely through the house.
