Accessibility
We really desire to be accessible to all, especially with regards to disability, but history and medieval buildings make that a little difficult.
S. Cecilia’s Church is immediately Wheelchair Accessible and has a disabled toilet. S. Anne’s Church is Wheelchair Accessible through the Double Doors just beyond the Main Entrance which is unlocked during Services and has a disabled toilet. S. Mary’s Church is Wheelchair Accessible with notice, as we can put down a ramp: Please call us in advance and he will make sure the ramp is down. S. Mary’s has a disabled toilet. Unfortunately, S. Edward’s (built in 1215AD) is not Wheelchair Accessible at all, and has steep steps. There is no toilet or hearing support. If you need to use a toilet please speak to a churchwarden.
All our Churches have Large Print Hymn Books and Mass Cards available on request. S. Anne’s and S. Mary’s has a hearing loop.
Gluten-Free Wafers are always available. You might need to just remind the priest taking the service that you require one.
If you have a Disability or Need which has not been addressed here, then please contact us, and we will endeavour to accommodate you as soon as possible.
