We like to attract a range of visitors to our race meetings, live music events and corporate events and do not exclude any disabilities.
We offer a wide range of different buildings and amenities and continually work towards improving and raising our standards in the facilities we have. To be able to raise our standards we review all our facilities and here at the racecourse, we pride ourselves in performing the best we can across all areas of the business.
We will always ensure all visitors will be looked after to a high standard, whether they have a disability or not.
If access to a certain location is not possible for whatever reason, we will always try our best to overcome these issues where possible. We pride ourselves on giving our team the best possible training that we can. This ensures guests will never be far from a person who can answer their questions.
