Is there first aid on site?
All Kingswood staff go through health and safety training and there are first aiders on site at all times.
Do you offer access for visitors with disabilities?
We endeavour to make our centres accessible to as many young people as possible. Experience has taught us that the best way to understand the extent, and limitations, of the provision our centres offer, is for party leaders to visit the centre itself and discuss the requirements with the management team on site. We encourage all those who wish to bring a guest with special needs to arrange a free visit to their chosen centre as early as possible in the planning process.
Do you cater for visitors with Special Educational Needs (SEN)?
Kingswood’s provisions for young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities including learning difficulties, hearing, visual or mobility impairment and behavioural issues can be found on the SEND page of their website along with risk assessments for SEND. However, Kingswood encourage party leaders to contact the management team to arrange SEND provisions.
