Access summary	There are two entrances to the Maggie's Centre, both suitable for wheelchair users. All courses and support groups take place on the ground floor. It would be easier for wheelchair users to use the entrance off St Dunstan's Road next to A&E as then they wouldnt have to go over the garden path which may be tricky.
