Hebden Bridge Town Centre Step-Free Access Map
Hebden Bridge Disability Access Forum (HBDAF) has created a map of accessible routes around Hebden Bridge town centre, showing wheelchair-friendly pavements, accessible toilets, parking spaces and bus stops: https://www.visitcalderdale.com/accessible-calderdale-hebden-bridge-town-centre-step-free-access-map/

Vibe: this will be a quiet, reflective event. It won't feel crowded and you will have as much space as you need. 

Toilets: there will not be any toilets provided as this event is taking place in the town centre in the evening after public toilets close. There are plenty of pubs and bars that you can use if you purchase a drink from them. 

Parking: Parking is available at St Pols or around the town. As this is a mid-week evening event you should not struggle. However we would encourage you to consider using alternative modes of transport such as busses or trains.
