Travel and accessibility information
Getting To Us
The address for ‘The Smithy’ is Unit 5 St Saviours Yard, Norwich, NR3 1GQ
If you’re coming by bus, the closest stop is Anglia Square. There are other nearby stops at Tombland, Upper King Street and Magdalen Road near Stacey Road, which are likely to be unaffected by any future Magdalen Street road closures.
If you’re coming by bicycle, there are numerous bike racks on site, including directly opposite our container and by the nearby toilet block.
If you’re coming by car, Colgate Car Park is 0.2 miles away, and Monastery Court car park is 0.4 miles away. St Andrews Car Park is 0.5 miles away. We can share a full list of local car parks and walking distances upon request.
Please note that there is no parking available at the site, however car drop-off is possible if required for access reasons- please get in touch with us so we can organise this at hello@wastesmiths.co.uk
Accessibility
The Smithy is a 40-foot shipping container with step access that we can adapt using a temporary ramp in order for wheelchair users to access the space. There is an accessible loo nearby on-site than can be accessed with a code. However, the loo requires self-transfer.
Please get in touch if you would like us to provide photos/video of accessing the space, or the loo.
Please note that the site sadly does not make provision for disabled parking, but if you would require this in order to participate, please do get in touch so we can discuss some possible workarounds/solutions at hello@wastesmiths.co.uk
It is possible that we may not be able to make every aspect of every activity physically accessible for everyone, but we will work to make everything as accessible as we can.
If you would like to participate, and you have specific access needs, or any questions related to access, please get in touch and we will do our very best to adjust our sessions for your needs. You can reach us by sending an email to hello@wastesmiths.co.uk.
