This page explains the current facilities for people with disabilities, and is intended to assist you in planning your visit.
Our Box Office is fully accessible and is situated in the foyer. The cinema screens are situated on the top floor and are fully accessible via lift, with wheelchair access in every screen. The Box The café (run by Leaf) is on the ground floor, and the bar on the first floor (run by Picturehouse) - both are fully accessible. The galleries on the ground and first floor are fully accessible. Accessible toilets are available on each floor.
Advance Booking
Advance booking is always a good idea so that our staff can readily provide assistance if required. Accompanying carers are eligible for a free ticket. We will be pleased to reserve wheelchair spaces or seats in any particular part of the auditorium if this is helpful. Please contact us in advance.
Customers with Limited Mobility
All areas of the building are accessible to visitors with limited mobility, including wheelchair users. There is a lift serving all floors in the main foyer, to the left of the Tickets and Information Point. All screens and galleries are accessible by wheelchair.
The Tickets and Information Point, kiosk and bars all have adapted counters and accessible levels for transactions.
Services for Deaf or Hearing-Impaired Customers
Services for Blind or Partially Sighted Customers
Toilets
There are fully accessible adapted toilets on the ground floor, on the second floor near the bar and Gallery 2, and on the third floor adjacent to Screen 2. There is an emergency call-point in each toilet should you need to summon a member of staff.
Disabled Parking
Setting down is best done by drawing alongside the main entrance on Wood Street. There are disabled parking spaces close by on Wood Street and Bold Street, and also to the rear of the building.
In the Event of a Fire
The cinema has several disabled refuges. In each auditorium the wheelchair spaces are next to the exit. A refuge is situated immediately outside each exit. If you would like to be made aware of the location of refuges when you arrive, please ask at the Box Office. Rescue authorities are well briefed on the layout of the building and the location of the refuges, and your rescue will be a priority.
Customers who have a disability that means that they need a companion with them in the cinema can bring them to any Picturehouse Cinema for free.
You can sign up for a Carers Card which will automatically discount one of your tickets, and which you can use – without a booking fee – when buying tickets in person, online or by telephone. The card will also mean that you don’t have to explain your situation every time you visit the cinema.
Ticket prices for customers with disabilities are according to their circumstances (e.g. adult, Member or student); the free ticket applies to their companion. The card must be used in conjunction with a paid-for ticket or a Member’s free ticket.
All customers for 3D screenings – including those using free tickets – will need to buy a pair of 3D glasses. These can be reused if you keep them.
Signing up for a card is not required, but we hope it will make buying tickets easier. It is personal to you, and may not be used by other people.
To apply for an annual Carers Card, visit any of our cinemas, call us on 0871 902 5747, or email customerservice@picturehouses.co.uk
