    Great day at The Burrell Collection

    I went for a visit at the Burrell Collection today, I was impressed by the staff's attitude towards me. They were great checking if my lunch was ok , they made me a sandwich especially for me as there was nothing much on the menu I could eat. They also talked to me in the right way which always makes a difference to me as I'm an aac user. The only thing i would say someone in a wheelchair can't see some of the information for the artwork as it down low and hard to read.

    First visit since reopening

    Easy access to the park and the building, with plenty disabled parking right outside the building. The museum is set up well and plenty of room round most exhibits. There is a room set up (like a room) though I never attempted that to look into it. There are three levels and all accessible by lifts, though one of the lifts to the 1st floor was out of order with no signage to advise where the other lift was.
