Accessibility
The Black-E's building is accessible to all people, regardless of their ability. This gives inclusion and equality to all of our visitors.
Accessibility at The Black-E
External access to the building is available through ramps – at the Nelson Street side of the building, to the lower ground floor (Chamber Theatre and Studio) – and at the Sankey Street side of the building, to the ground floor (Gallery). An accessible lift connects to all six floors, and wheelchair accessible toilets and internal ramps render all levels fully physically accessible.
The fit-out of the building includes plans for Sennheiser infra-red assistive listening systems in public performance and exhibition areas, and for induction loops in reception and meeting areas.
Anyone wishing to hire or to visit any of the spaces is invited to contact us to discuss access issues and we will be happy to assist.
