Accessibility

Our building has three levels with an elevator giving access to each level. Our building entrance is wheelchair accessible.  Our washrooms are in the basement, with a stall suitable for a wheelchair in the women's washroom

We also provide resources for those needing hearing assistance including print copies of the sermon and devices for amplification. If you'd like to make use of these nifty gadgets, please talk with the person running the sound booth at the back of the sanctuary.
