Access

We strive to make our parks as accessible to as many people as possible.

Many of our parks have disabled access with level paths that are suitable for wheelchair users, some have disabled parking and toilets. For accessibility information about each park visit individual parks pages in the Parks and open spaces section. 

If you need more information or have any feedback or suggestions about how we can improve access, we'd be keen to hear from you. Please contact us using our contact form, or by calling us on 01332 640789.
