Venue Access
Our venues are all indoors and take the form of pubs, clubs, theatres and public facilities. This means the facilities on offer will vary, and some venues may be inaccessible to individuals based on this.
The Exchange Project
The Exchange Project is wheelchair accessible. There is no disabled toilet located inside of the venue but a disabled access portable toilet located outside of the Exchange Project.
Pendle Hippodrome
Pendle Hippodrome is a wheelchair accessible venue with disabled toilets. The venue has recently undergone an extensive redevelopment of the former Derby Arms which is the neighbouring property to the Hippodrome. Access is through the entrance of the Derby Arms and straight into the lift down into the Theatre.
Little Theatre
The Little Theatre is a wheelchair accessible venue with disabled toilets, spread across one floor. The venue is located down a small side street away from the main road. We would advise to bring a carer as you have to go down a cobbled street to get into the venue.
Assistant Dogs
All of our venues allow assistance dogs, please inform Colne Town Council prior to the event.
