Staff contact the station that he is due to get off at ahead of him arriving and a member of staff is waiting with a ramp to help him off the train. www.southernrailway.com/travel-information/travel-help/assisted-travel It is reccommended that you let Southern Railway know in advance where you will be travelling to and from so they can assist you as best they can. Andrew – Said he’d visited Lincoln and enjoyed seeing the cathederal and windmill.Rachael – Spoke about going to Whitstable in Kent with her family.

• Also, apart from the Thursday evening ‘Advanced’ session at Selhurst, all the sessions are indoors so you’ll be warm and dry!

So if you haven’t been before or you are a support worker looking to give people new opportunities, please email Michael Harrington, the

‘Palace For Life’ Disability Manager on [email protected], 020 8768 6047 or 07808 323039

coaches.
