Directions
By
Road
Follow the M3 until it ends at the Sunbury roundabout. Continue
up the A316 Chertsey Road, over three roundabouts. Continue for
2 miles. With Twickenham Rugby Stadium on the left, Quins' ground
is on the right. U-turn at the RFU roundabout. Enter the Stoop via
Langhorn Drive, 450 yards on the left.

By
Train
Twickenham station is served by trains from London Waterloo and
Reading, with more services and routes accessible via Clapham Junction.
After the match (and after a warming pint or two in the East Stand)
there are plenty of trains to return you home safely.
Upon leaving the station, turn right towards Twickenham Rugby Stadium
and left at the mini-roundabout. Take the first left into Court
Way and then turn left into Craneford Way and continue on until
you reach the stadium.
The
Twickenham Stoop is at the end of the road on the right.
Parking
& Access
There is a specially designated car park for the disabled behind
the East Stand. However, it is advised that people get to the car
park early as it fills up quickly. There is also parking in the
Brown car park, behind the South Stand, in the Green car park, behind
the North Stand and in the Magenta car park off Langhorn Drive.

Facilities
Supporters at Harlequins believed that the facilities at the Stoop
in the 2004/05 season were second only to Twickenham in terms of
facilities for the disabled user in Europe. The situation has improved
even more now that the new West Stand (Lexus Stand) has been completed.
Most wheelchair users should now find all the facilities that are
needed.
Seating
The Twickenham Stoop has fully integrated seating arrangements.
There are 121 disabled/carer/wheelchair seats in total.
The majority of disabled seats are located at the bottom of the
East and West stands and are easily accessible from both of the
respective car parks. Some supporters have warned that, by being
seated in the lower section of the East Stand, the views can be
restricted due to other supporters arriving at or moving around
during the game. It is difficult to know how much of a problem this
presents. The Ticket Office have also stated that there are very
few seats available in the West Stand, This can vary on a match
by match basis and it is always advisable to check prior to each
game. For additional information contact Damien Hutchins, Ticket
Office Manager on 020 8410 6000 or email damien@quins.co.uk.
Seat prices in each of the stands are complementary for the disabled.
Should anyone wish to take a carer with them then they will be charged
just £10 for their seat.
There are also 16 disabled/carer/wheelchair balcony seats located
at the top of the new West Stand. These seats are accessible through
a lift located in the West Stand reception area.
Disabled
Toilet Facilities
There are two disabled toilets in the East Stand. As the West Stand
is new there should be at least as many here, although establishing
this information has been quite difficult.
