We have 15 accessible parking spaces located close to the Remembrance Centre. These spaces can be booked in advance online using the button below.
We have a drop-off area, next to the Remembrance Centre main entrance. On arrival please speak to a member of our parking team who will be happy to direct you.
Access from our carpark to, and around, the Remembrance Centre is level and there is a drop off point with a dropped curb at the entrance. When you arrive, please let one of our parking attendants know that you have additional access requirements and the team will direct you to the next available space.
All visitors, including blue badge holders, are required to pay to park.
There are a variety of ways for people to access and explore our 150-acre site including a network of permanent pathways, hireable mobility scooters and a selection of guided tours.
As a maturing landscape with natural features, it’s worth remembering that certain areas in our grounds may present challenges for those with special access requirements, many of our memorials for example are on grassed areas. Please do speak to a member of our team if you require further support to access any of our memorials or advice about exploring the National Remembrance Gardens during your visit.
Our facilities
A Changing Places Toilet is located in the Remembrance Centre, where there is level access. The facility features a ceiling hoist system, height adjustable changing bench and wash basin, shower, privacy screen and easily accessible toilet. It is accessed by a RADAR toilet key. You can borrow a key at the Welcome Desk if you haven't got one of your own.
There are two further accessible toilets which can be found within the Remembrance Centre and one in Heroes' Square to the left of the coffee shop.
Whilst visitors are welcome to bring their own mobility aids to use, many visitors choose to hire a mobility scooter or wheelchair from us for the duration of their visit.
Mobility Scooters can be hired at a daily charge (£10 per day), and wheelchairs for a donation of your choice. We have a limited number of each available, so we advise booking these ahead of your visit.
Please note, mobility scooter use is restricted to aged 14 years and over, and dogs are unable to accompany visitors on their mobility scooter. If you are visiting with your dog, please ensure there is another member of your party responsible for them whilst on site.
The land train* runs regularly between February and December and is ideal for first time visitors. The tour, with pre-recorded commentary, takes 50 minutes and is accessible for manual wheelchair users.
Our buggy tours* are the perfect way to ensure you don’t miss out on seeing more of our memorials that are a distance from the Remembrance Centre. Led by one of our expert volunteer guides, these tours take around 40 minutes and allow visitors to have a more personal experience.
*Land train and buggy tours are subject to availability and can be booked at the Welcome Desk. Charges apply.
Trained assistance dogs are permitted in all areas of the National Remembrance Gardens.
A printed transcript of the land train audio is available for use during the land train tour. Please let the team know when boarding the train should you wish to make use of this.
Hearing aid loops are installed at the Welcome Desk, shop and restaurant.
