The best family days out in London and beyond rated by kids and teens
Published: 2nd March 2016
After the success of the first Disabled Access Day last year, Disabled Access Day 2016 will take place on Saturday 12th March. Here at KidRated we fully believe that everyone should be able to enjoy London’s attractions so we are excited.
Plus don’t forget that Cafe Nero will be getting involved by giving away free coffees, selected branches of Barclays Bank will also be taking part and as will the Italian restaurant Strada.
If you can’t make it on the 12th then why not check out our Special Needs page for year round access information and have a read of Simon’s blog about relaxed performances of West End shows.
All that the organisers behind Disabled Access Day ask is that you visit somewhere that you haven’t been before. Have a look on the official website to see exactly what each attraction is to celebrate the day and find the best place for you to visit.
