Facilities and features
Accessibility
We have two toilets available, one is more accessible.
(We are currently making plans for building works to make our toilet facilities more accessible.)
We have one toilet with a wall mounted baby changing unit. Our toilets are are unisex.
We have a few spaces available in our small car park (parallel to Buxton Road, accessed via Vicarage Close). There is one space reserved for people who are Blue Badge holders.
One toilet has 'grab handles' and is easier to access by wheelchair / mobility aid users. We are currently in the process of planning for building work to improve our accessibility.
We have a new ramp to the main entrance to the church which allows step free access to the nave and North aisle of the church and to the church hall. There is still, currently, a step to the chancel.
There is a ramp to the rear of the church which provides access to the hall (without coming via the church). We are in the process of planning building works that will provide an upgraded ramp to the church hall.
We have a hearing loop in the church which is used for all services
Large print service booklets are available. If you have specific requests (colour, font, text size etc.) or would prefer an electronic file please let Rev'd Hannah know.
Assistance dogs are always welcome
Gluten free biscuits are usually available after services (on request)
