We have just been instructed not to continue to use the wheelchair ramp at St. Edmund’s Church: the gradient is considered too steep. It’s not a straightforward problem to solve, temporarily or permanently (hence the Access 4 Acle fundraising): regrettably, it looks as though the church will not be accessible to wheelchair users for the immediate future.
