Can you tell me if the venues are disabled friendly? as I'm a wheelchair user.

Hello UkuEroll,
I've just confirmed with the Phonenix venue and with the Ukulele Committee that all venues are Wheelchair friendly. The Phoenix have advised that its an easier access through the garden into the pub.
I hope this helps. Any problems, or if you require any further info - please contact me at Musicroom on 02392 863792.
