Disabled Access

The majority of U3A meetings are held at their headquareters which are situated in the Scout and Guide Hut next to Christ Church. Disabled access to the U3A headquarters is by a ramp and both rooms have doors wide enough to accomodate a wheelchair. There is also a disabled toilet.

Designated car parking spaces for the disabled are situated near the Scout and Guide Hut.

Help With Hearing

Both rooms in the U3A headquarters are fitted with a loop system to enable deaf or hard of hearing people who use a hearing aid to hear sounds more clearly. Remember to switch your hearing aid to the 'T' position. (Find out more on loop systems). Please let the co-ordinator or leader know if the loop system is not being used or is not working at any U3A meeting.
