ACCESSIBiLITY

We strive to ensure our services and events are accessible to everyone. 


Whatever venue we use it will be wheelchair friendly. If possible we will use a venue with gender-neutral washrooms to enable Trans visitors feel comfortable.


We still have work to do to enable people with a sensory disability participate in services or meetings by providing support such as large-print or Braille siddurs, a loop system, signers or notetakers.


Our services are relaxed, visitors are encouraged to sit, stand or move about and take a break as they like. 


Visitors have the option to read, sing or simply watch during the service, there is no pressure to do anything ! If you have any support needs please tell us, people have hidden disabilities and it is important we are told how we can help as we don't assume anything.
