Wycombe Swan welcomes people with disabilities and has been specially designed to ensure access for all. Wycombe Swan is proud to have received the British Gas ADAPT Award and The Wycombe Area Access For All Award for the progressive design, policy and attitude towards helping people with disabilities.
Wheelchair Access
The main auditorium has space for up to 12 wheelchair users in the stalls; the Town Hall for up to 5. Registered disabled patrons pay the lowest ticket price available, and if accompanied by a carer, the carers' ticket is free of charge.
Disabled Parking
There are free reserved spaces for holders of Disabled Persons Blue Badge in the adjacent Swan Car Park and level access through to the Ticket Office, foyer, bars, toilets and stalls level of the auditorium. There is a lift to the Circle and Upper Circle foyers and also to the Oak Room from the Town Hall.
Guide Dogs
If guide dogs are accompanying patrons, please advise the Ticket Office so that seating with suitable access can be arranged. If necessary please advise us of your requirements at the time of booking so that staff may be prepared for your visit.
Signed Performances
Wycombe Swan organises sign-language interpreted performances for some of the biggest shows of the year.
Hard-of-Hearing
Wycombe Swan's auditorium has a wireless infra-red (Sennheiser) system, this technology uses an invisible infra red light to connect sound source and listener. Sennheiser Infrared audio transmission systems are an effective alternative to hard wired systems. Listeners wear an infrared receiver with headphones, headset or stethoset. Receivers can be collected from the Cloakroom in the Stalls Foyer.
Stage Tours for Visually Impaired
Pre-performance tours of the stage set for the visually impaired can be arranged for individuals or groups. Please contact us to arrange a mutually convenient time.
