Accessibility

At Catterick Racecourse, we are committed to providing all customers with the opportunity to enjoy a wonderful experience with each visit. Our racecourse office team can be reached on 01748 811478 and are available to answer any questions you may have in advance about your raceday.

Additionally, should you require a personal assistant or carer in order to visit the racecourse, you are entitled to apply for one complimentary admission ticket for a nominated individual.

Access Card Scheme

We have recently partnered with Nimbus Disability, operators of the Access Card scheme, making it possible for those requiring essential companion admission to book easily in advance.

Designed to streamline the process of communicating your access needs, the Access Card translates your disability or impairment into easy-to-understand symbols, effectively highlighting the barriers you face and serves as recognised proof of your requirements.

There are over 3 million Access card holders across the UK, and over 2,500 venues and service providers recognise and use the Access Card system.

If you are new to Access Card and you would like to apply for one purely for use at Catterick Racecourse, then this is a FREE service.

Register for your FREE Catterick Racecourse Digital Access Card, providing details of your access requirements. 

If you would prefer a physical Access Card that will be recognised by all of the registered venues across the country, then the cost is just £15.00 for 3 years.

The physical card acts as a photo ID and in addition to translating your needs into symbols, the Access Card serves as recognised proof of your requirements, eliminating the need for repeated explanations at different venues.

How to book your complimentary companion ticket

Step 1 - Register for your FREE Catterick Racecourse Digital Access Card, providing details of your access requirements. 

Step 2 - Once you have received your Digital Access Card registration confirmation you can simply call us on 01748 811 478 and let us know your Access Card ID number when you book your tickets in advance and we'll add a complimentary companion ticket to your order.  

Step 3 - If you have already purchased your ticket and need to add a companion ticket simply call us on 01748 811 478 or email info@catterickbridge.co.uk with your order number and your Access Card ID number and we'll add a complimentary ticket to your order.

Step 4 - Alternatively, if you don't wish to book in advance you can simply bring your Access Card / Digital Access Card email confirmation with you on the day and show it at the entry when you arrive to receive your free companion admission.
