Please note: access to the Chapel for wheelchair users is via a ‘Stairmate’, which is a manually driven machine which must be used by a qualified operator. The wheelchair and the wheelchair user are strapped into the machine and the whole machine is tilted to a 45° angle. The Stairmate is not suitable for electric scooters, although it is suitable for some electric wheelchairs. Stairmate specifications: weight limit 440lbs/200kg, maximum width 69.5cm (27”). For H&S reasons, the number of wheelchair users to the Chapel per tour is limited to 2. For visitors not using the Stairmate but requiring step free access to the front door of the Chapel, please get in touch with us to receive a step-free route map. Once you are inside the Chapel, there are 14 steps to access the main body of the Chapel.
