Getting around outside
Customer care support
We are able to store and monitor Wheelchairs and mobility scooters not in use, but unfortunately we are unable to charge them.
Emergency evacuation procedures
For those who require additional assistance in the event of an evacuation, our staff are trained in the use of evac chairs which are located on Circle 1 and 2 levels.
Customer care support
We are partnered with Nimbus Disability and accept the Nimbus Access Card. Nimbus’ Access Card is a single consistent method of communicating accessibility requirements between customer and provider, and is now used by many major live music, events and entertainment organisations.
Aylesbury Waterside Theatre are proud to support the Sunflower Lanyard scheme to our patrons. Sunflower lanyards are available as an option for patrons who may have an invisible disability, or for patrons who may require some additional support and assistance during their visit. The lanyard therefore works as an indicator for staff to offer the appropriate care and support to patrons in a non-intrusive manner. The sunflower lanyards are free to collect from the Box Office.
We are able to provide a visual story of the building. This acts as a guide for anyone who feels worried or anxious ahead of their visit and explains what to expect when you visit the theatre. Our Visual Story is a visual resource to help prepare visitors for a new experience and to help them become familiar with new surroundings and what to expect. Should you wish to see our visual story, please get in contact and we will happily provide you with one.
