There should be no reason to let a disability hold you back or prevent you from experiencing the best of Nottingham and Nottinghamshire. Whether you want to go on an adventure, exploring Sherwood Pines, joining in on a tour to hear all about the ghosts of Nottingham or just sit back and get transported to a new world with amazing theatre or concerts, there’s plenty of fun to be had that is accessible for all - even a fully accessible forest adventure is on the cards! The Woodland Adventure Zone near Mansfield, is a new, triple-award winning, accessible forest adventure, purpose-built within the grounds of Portland College. Set amongst acres of pine trees in Sherwood Forest, it is a truly unique setting for your outdoor adventure. With access for wheelchair users and people with disabilities, the Woodland Adventure Zone provides an exciting experience for people of all ages and abilities.
