    Could be more autism friendly

    Very nice shopping center staff are really friendly only issue is there are no autism awareness cards to pick up from the help desk like stated on the website. Nor do they come on very sificiant lanyards. I feel a quiet or sensory from in the center would be of benifit as the center can be very overwhelming

    once again, good access to the shopping centre but dreadful access to the shops

    Lifts from the car park. Disabled parking available in the multi-storey attached to the shopping centre, but expensive and no extra time given to blue badges. Flat level access around centre, but most shops inaccessible with a wheelchair due to the amount of display stands crammed into them. BE WARNED: you only have 10 minutes from paying for your car parking at the meters in the centre to get out of the car park.
