New AccessAble app launches

Monday, 27 March 2023
A revolutionary tool designed to provide practical information about facilities available and the access routes into buildings.

The app also signposts to prayer rooms, parenting rooms, gender-neutral toilets and quiet spaces.

Detailed information on the accessibility of different buildings on campus is available before you set off on your journey to campus, including features such as step-free access, parking and accessible toilets. You can also find information on local transport options, such as bus and train routes that are wheelchair accessible.

The app uses an easy-to-understand rating system to indicate the level of accessibility to assist individuals who may face difficulties navigating the campus due to mobility, visual, or hearing impairments or as a result of sensory overload.

Survey information collected to create the App will also be used to help the Estates Team prioritise budget spend to make the campuses more inclusive in the future and to inform the design of Castle Meadow Campus.

AccessAble app is now available to download on both Apple and Android devices.
