We would advise that this event is accessible for wheelchair users with assistance. The majority of the route is on hardstanding paths but there is a section on grass that can get quite boggy in wet weather. A shorter route would be available if grounds are unsuitable.
Disabled parking is available at Alexandra Park Car Park.
If spectating, the event site is mostly on grass, so those with accessibility issues may require assistance on the uneven surfaces
