Hi,

My friend is coming along to Endorset, managed to twist her arm at last and I was wondering what facilities there are for disabled persons? It would be great if we could 'book' a space near water and the toilets, up towards the top end of the family camping area near where the cafe was last year. She is tough little cookie but with out wanting to patronise her life would be made easier if this was possible.

I was hoping that it would be possible that we could perhaps doss in the guest in area (as that is where our friends would be camping) but if that is not possible I understand.

Any advice would be appreciated, she has already bought the tickets - do I need to give you a name etc. to make for special allowances? I'll be her slave for the weekend

Thanks in advance

Hiya - was sure I'd answered this somewhere, but can't find it soooo....

There is a disabled camping area right by the entrance to camping field. Sorry but we can't reserve spaces in the rest of the camping area specifically for anyone. However if you get there early there should be no problem at all.
Unfortunately back-stage camping is no better suited to disabled needs than the rest of the site ( and a lot less exciting) and really is for crew/bands only.

Best bet is to email info@lgofestivals.com and we'll fill you in further

would appreciate feedback on disabled camping at Endorse It as hoping to come this year. Have done Glastonbury , Big Green Gathering and Beautiful Days without many problems so would like any tips. Whats the site like if wet - had a hard time at Beautiful Days last year as the weather was sadly horrible!
Pretty much got away with it at Glastonbury this year so fingers crossed!!

Hi,
Obviously Mud is a problem everywhere..and.. anywhere

But to be honest... We Find Endorse It is far easier than Beautiful Day because it's a lot more level.

......please pm me if you want more info

Will my friend need to bring her blue badge thingy with her? She's not wheelchair bound or anything but has MS and is heat sensitive.

Sorry for the late notice.

P.S

I can't wait, I am coming all the way down from rural northumberland again for this, nearly a 900 mile round trip for me but so worth it

Best festival going.
