Access Guides
The University works with AccessAble, the UK's leading provider of access information, to provide details about the accessibility of our buildings and facilities.
"AccessAble - UoE" app
AccessAble - UoE is available on both iOS and Android, and uses symbols, photos and descriptions to give you instant access to information about ramps, lifts and accessible toilets.
Handy features include MyWayToGo which directs you to a chosen accessible place on campus, and FindMeNow, an in-built emergency locator that sends your GPS location to your chosen emergency contact by email or SMS.
