I went to Westfield Shopping Centre to check the access out due to it being a newly opened shopping centre, if you go by car there is a good carpark with a lot od disabled parking spaces.....
Please Note Disabled Drivers have to pay in the carpark
They do have a dropped down curb but it is not next to the disabled bays.
Once you get into the centre you are faced by the ticket machines and the lifts, but they don't have normal floor numbers like (G= Ground) the lift floors go up like this -1,1,0 why I do jnot know
When you get to the shops they have the normal shops such as:
- WHsmiths
- Boots
- Waitrose
- Orange Store
- T-Mobile Store
- O2 Store
- HMV
- NatWest
- Hailfax
They also have a area in the centre called 'The Village' that has more shops that are more upmarket such as
and many more like that.
If you feel hungry they have a huge range of cafes, coffee shops to choose from such as:
They also have Accessible toilets but they don't have any wheelchair signs anywhere but when you see the female and male sign there is a disabled toilet as well.
They have a Shopmoblility Scheme with very nice but huge Scooters that are more suited to the outdoors.
They just fit in the lift, I took my own scooter.
They don't have many seats but the seats they have are very posh,
To get to Westfield you can take
bus or car
