Less Able Visitors

Access TramCrich Tramway Village has been voted one of the top three museums by people who are disabled.

For people with visual difficulties we have Braille guide books plus text versions for sighted companions.

We have staff trained in assisting people who are deaf or hard of hearing.

There are access ramps or lifts to all our visitor facilities and the AccessTram is a 1969 Berlin tram which has been adapted to lift and carry people in wheelchairs.

A "Wheelway" provides a smoother alternative to the cobbles for wheelchairs and buggies.

We allow a free carer per person should you need assistance on your visit.

Please note that some of the above facilities are by arrangement. To avoid disappointment please call before your visit to check all facilities and guides are available on the day you wish to visit. 01773 854321

The Access Tram (the specially adapted tram for less able visitors)will not be available from Friday 23rd of September 2011 due to essential maintenance. Visitors which are unable to have a tram ride with us due to this, will be offered a reduced admission of Adults £5, Seniors £4 and Childen £2.50. All other trams will be running as normal
