Shopping and Access - City Centre

Access around the city centre is patchy.

Shop Mobility is a useful service to help some disabled people get around, and lease out motorised scooters and wheelchairs to registered members.


Dudley Street and its offshoots have a cobbled uneven central aisle, however there is a flatter surface at the sides.
Most shops now have a level entrance, however many of them have very narrow walkways and are difficult to get around.
You have the right to be able to use all the shops in the city centre. If you cannot because a shop is inaccessible, the shop must make reasonable adjustments – this may include things like coming around the (high) counter to serve you, allowing you to try on clothes at home, etc.
Here is a list of some of the accessible venues or features in the City Centre:
