We want to ensure that Focus is a great experience for everybody.

MOBILITY SCOOTERS
We will have a small number of electric mobility scooters available to hire from the Info Hut. Scooters are available on a first come, first served basis. Email us for more information.
ASSISTANCE DOGS
Sadly we are not able to allow pets. The only animals allowed on site are guide dogs and assistance dogs registered with organisations recognised by Assistance Dogs UK.
GETTING AROUND THE SITE
In addition to the existing roads and paths, trackway will be laid across the site to assist with mobility and will run up to the Big Top. There will also be the ability to charge wheelchairs at a central point in the site.
We also have a Land Train operating around the site, which will have one carriage giving priority to those with mobility needs.
PARKING
There will be accessible parking available close to both gates.
BIG TOP AND VENUES
All marquees and seminar spaces are either level access or have ramp access.
In the Big Top there will be space allocated for wheelchairs and carers/friends. Please speak to the stewarding team if you need help finding this section.
If you would prefer a quieter experience in the Big Top, head to either side of the tent and avoid the centre section.
Please note that bright and flashing lights may be used throughout Big Top Sessions and in other venues.
DISABLED ACCESS SHOWERS & TOILETS
There will be disabled toilets and shower facilities at specified locations on-site, marked on the site map.
SUPPORT FOR THOSE WITH ADDITIONAL NEEDS
Our Space and The Hub are spaces to support children and young people with additional needs. Those requiring support will have a buddy to accompany them throughout the sessions.
