Including everyone in... Welcome

Does your venue or church building look welcoming and appear inclusive and accessible to all, particularly to disabled people? Are pathways clear and level? Is the building easy to access? For example, are entrance doors easy to open in terms of handle and weight, colour contrasted with surrounding area, well-lit externally and inside?

Are your Door Stewards trained or informed on how to welcome disabled people?  Are there spare chairs near the door and at the end of rows for people that suffer from panic or claustrophobia so they can easily exit the meeting if needed?

Getting to Church

Can disabled people get to your church or can a rota system be set up to offer lifts to people with mobility difficulties?  Are your premises clearly visible and signposted?  Can disabled parents park to drop off their children?
