Access and disability

Our community is committed to being as accessible as possible. We welcome members and visitors who have hearing or visual difficulties, are disabled, and/or have access needs.

We have the following facilities in place to support your visit to our building:

  • Step-free access to the building
  • A volunteer on our “Welcome Desk” every Shabbat morning to support anyone with access needs
  • There is step-free seating for men and women on the ground floor of the building, with a dedicated area for women at the rear of the men’s section of the shul. 
  • A lift to the Freeman Susman hall on the upper floor (Shabbat friendly)
  • A hearing loop
  • Large print siddurim 
  • Accessible toilet facilities on the ground floor
  • Car park (not in use on Shabbat) 
  • We work with families to ensure that teenagers who are neuro diverse or who have cognitive disabilities are able to enjoy and celebrate bar and bat mitzvahs
  • We support adults who are neurodiverse or who have cognitive difficulties to attend services and/or events
  • Support (arranged individually) for those who might need help getting to shul on Shabbat or during the week

Please contact the shul office to discuss how we can best remove any barriers you might face when visiting our building. 

Our efforts regarding inclusion are ongoing.  We welcome input from members of our community with disabilities or access needs, or from their family members.
