Heritage Day: Sikh Voices at Hampton Court Palace

https://www.hrp.org.uk/hampton-court-palace/visit/accessibility/

Support/access provision at Historic Royal Palaces:

• Access: The Palace is largely an accessible venue, and the exhibition takes place on the ground floor.
The Palace staff have access arrangements in place for wheelchair users.
• The Clore Learning Centre and the Palace both have wheelchair accessible toilets.
• We will endeavour to ensure wheelchair users can experience our exhibition and the wider Palace with equity and parity alongside non-disabled audiences/participants.
• Ticketing: For Heritage Days by A little History of the Sikhs we have ensured all tickets are at the lowest price possible, to reduce financial barriers. All interested parties’ area asked to contact A little History of the Sikhs, if the ticket pricing for Heritage Days is a barrier, and we will ensure we can cover the ticket price. We aim to work on a trust basis, and all disabled people and their careers will not be asked to provide ‘proof’ of disability.
• Accessible events for Deaf Audiences: If we are made aware in advance of visitors, we will work with Historic Royal Palaces to ensure we have audio loops booked in for the day.
• Neurodivergent/learning disabled access: On our Heritage Days, we will offer a space as a breakout area/chillout space for use during the day.
• Visitors for whom English is not a main language: The team at A little History of the Sikhs will be happy to present information in Punjabi, Urdu or Hindi for those attending who may feel more comfortable in engaging with the exhibition in their mother tongue.
• Toilets: For our elders and visitors, we will ensure that all toilet locations are announced upon arrival at the Clore Learning Centre. The exhibition area is also close to a set of toilets, to minimise any anxiety about use of welfare facilities.
