Accessibility on campus

Buildings access

If a building has a designated disabled access which is separate to the main entrance this will be listed at the top of the building’s entry in the A-Z of campus buildings.

Parkinson Building

There are handrails and a central balustrade on the steps of the Parkinson building’s iconic main entrance, next to which is the elegantly designed wheelchair-accessible lift tower.

Sensory Garden 

On the grounds of Charles Morris Hall (CMH) there’s a wheelchair-accessible sensory garden with tactile plants that were specially selected to create a tranquil environment with calming scents and sounds for people on the autism spectrum, and year-round enjoyment for everyone. 

Braille and large print guidebooks for visually impaired and blind visitors are available upon request at reception in CMH.

Cafés

All cafés on campus are wheelchair accessible. All cafés with fixed furniture have a section with movable tables and chairs.  Most cafés on campus have automatic doors but those that don’t will have a door propped open. Likewise, most counters and payment points are at wheelchair-accessible height, where this isn’t the case staff are happy to assist.

Old Bar

Wheelchair accessible via a lift, large accessible toilet, moveable tables and chairs. The bar has large screens for matches and hosts small events such as gigs; therefore, the noise levels may be problematic for some people during these busy events.
