Getting from Manchester to Wembley Stadium in a wheelchair

[Nixon_The_Bike_Thief]

Surely these coaches nowadays are designed to accomodate wheelchairs ? would you not be best on a coach direct to Wembley and back.

About three quarters of the way down, there's a Pete Swanson and Gary Deards who have expertise in disabled supporters.

Also, the National association for disabled supporters:

I feel so bad for laughing at some of these jokes =( especially the last one!

 

[Time will pass me by]

Euston Square to Wembley Park is the way to go. The lift at Euston Square unfortunatley is on the opposite side of the Marylebone Rd to Euston maine line (but still only a couple of hundred yards away) and is right outside the Welcolme Trust building. The lift takes you directly down to the west bound platform (the one for Wembley Park). At Wembley Park the lifts are situated at the south end of the platforms ie towards the back of the Metropolitan train you will have just got off. Go right when you get out of the platform lift and hed to the right of the stadium gate line where you will find wide gates for easy access. The lift for Wembley way is just to the left of the ticket office. There should be plenty of staff to assist if needed.

Yes it will be crowded especialy on the return but dozens of wheelchair users go through Wembley Park for every stadium event. This is part of the reason station was redeveloped.

If you are agoraphobic or have an injury that could be agrovated in a crowded situation then maybee alternatives could be sought but this would apply to everyone, wheelchair user or not.

If I get a chance I will PM you with some advice for the return journey during the week.

Good luck and enjoy the day. If you do go by tube let me know how you got on.
