Access Card in Wales

Why Customers Look for the Access Card:

For disabled people and families, seeing the Access Card recognised means:

  • Fewer barriers

  • Less anxiety

  • More confidence to visit

It sends a clear message: “You are welcome here.”


Why the Access Card Matters

Not all disabilities are visible, and many people find it difficult to explain their needs repeatedly. The Access Card helps to:

  • Reduce barriers for disabled customers

  • Supports you to make reasonable adjustments

  • Increase confidence for staff when supporting access needs

  • Create more welcoming experiences without guesswork

  • Build trust with customers and families

By recognising the Access Card, your venue shows that accessibility is understood, respected, and taken seriously.

How It Works for Your Business

The Access Card uses a set of easy-to-understand symbols that represent access requirements such as:

  • Accessible seating or space

  • Assistance for queueing

  • Support for sensory environments

  • Carer or companion access

Your team doesn’t need medical details — just the information needed to offer a better experience.
