Accessible services


Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

There should be no barriers to accessing our services, whether that's face to face, via telephone or electronic communication.

For many years we have taken advice from the North York Moors Disability Advisory Group. The scope of this group has been widened and we now have an Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Forum which meets quarterly. Part of its remit is to ensure that accessing our services and employment is as easy as possible as well as breaking down the barriers that can get in the way of people from all backgrounds being able to enjoy the National Park.

You can also find agendas and minutes of the North York Moors National Park Authority's meetings on the website and we will be pleased to send them to you in large text too.

Our National Park Centres and the public areas of our offices in Helmsley are, of course, accessible to wheelchair users. Danby Lodge National Park Centre has a lift to the upper floor. Dedicated parking spaces for people who are disabled are at all of our sites and are all clearly marked.

You can also find agendas and minutes of the North York Moors National Park Authority's meetings on the website and we will be pleased to send them to you in large text too.

You can speak at all Committee Meetings and Parish Forums. Portable hearing loops are available for use at all meetings. Our formal meetings are now live streamed and can be viewed from anywhere.
