Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art (MIMA)

There are two entrances to MIMA with automatic doors with a wide opening space that would more than allow any wheelchair to access. The ground floor is a very open space with a clear access throughout, the cafe is situated close to the entrance and is accessible throughout. The disabled toilet is very accessible. There is a hearing loop available to persons with hearing difficulties. Some exhibitions also have audio guides available but you must telephone MIMA ahead of your visit to enquire about this.. There is a lift to enable access to all floors for disabled visitors. The gallery entrance doors themselves are a difficulty, there are two sets of double doors on each gallery with a total width of 64 inches, you have to ask for help in order to access the exibitions.
