Accessibility Statement
We also have a complete Accessibility Statement. Click below to download the guide, where you will find useful information about what provisions we have in place at the Select Car Leasing Stadium.
Sensory Room
During the 2022-23 season, the club has partnered with local charity, Swings & Smiles, in creating a provision for a therapeutic area at the Select Car Leasing Stadium which will allow us to invite supporters with specific needs to join our Royal family on a matchday in RG2.
The charity offers support for children wide range of disabilities and special needs, and their families, in a unique and accessible environment, including respite facilities, family play sessions, youth clubs, sibling support and outreach programmes.
And they are now able to provide opportunities to young football supporters who want to come to Royals home matches; this facility will help families attend games where previously they would not feel confident or comfortable in the environment.
