Facilities for people with physical disabilities

Information desks
Both the Library and Student Desk are equipped with an adapted section for visitors in wheelchairs.
The counters in the restaurant and the canteens do not all meet the requirements. Nevertheless, there are hardly any practical problems here.
Copy machines
The copy machines are all too large for independent use by wheelchair users and small people. A more usable low machine is available at the library by appointment at the Library Desk.

Loading bay for mobility scooters and wheelchairs
Not present, but if such a loading area is needed please contact Anita Mosterd.
