Wheelchair Access

There is level access from both entrances to the building, with a power assisted door at the front entrance on Horse Market, and a set of wide automatic doors at the rear. Disability vehicles can also get close to our rear entrance via the bottom of Morrison’s car park.

All public areas of the building are fully accessible as a lift is located in the Café Bar with access to all floors: 0, 1 & 2.

We are unable to accommodate mobility scooters inside the building, however, there is plenty of space at the rear to park safely. We do have a wheelchair available for customers’ use. Please contact us in advance of your visit to ensure availability.

Toilets and Baby Changing

Male and female toilets are situated on level 1 within the Café Bar. A separate accessible toilet is located adjacent to the lift on level 0. Baby changing facilities are available in the accessible toilet.

  • Box Office & Visitor Information Point
  • Gallery
  • Witham Room
  • Music Hall
  • Service dogs are welcome.

We also welcome well-behaved dogs at The Witham in the Café Bar area and a drinking bowl can be found near the back doors.

 

Sustainability Statement

At The Witham, we are committed to operating in an environmentally responsible and sustainable manner. Our efforts focus on reducing waste, conserving resources, and lowering our carbon footprint while creating a positive impact on our community and planet.

Energy Efficiency
To minimise our energy consumption, in 2025 we are installing energy-efficient LED lighting throughout our premises. These lights will significantly reduce electricity usage while maintaining a welcoming and functional environment. Additionally, we have invested in solar panels to harness renewable energy, further decreasing our reliance on non-renewable resources and contributing to a greener future.

Waste Reduction and Recycling
We actively promote waste reduction by using recycled materials wherever possible. Our cups, for instance, are made from recycled materials, and we provide clearly labelled bins for waste segregation, encouraging responsible recycling and disposal practices among our staff and customers.

Community and Environmental Impact
Our commitment to sustainability aligns with our broader mission to support our community and the environment. By integrating green practices into our operations, we strive to set an example and inspire others to take meaningful steps toward a sustainable future.
