If you’re unable to stand for long periods of time due to a physical disability or learning/emotional impairment, you may be entitled to use a Ride Access Pass during your visit to Oakwood Theme Park. This will allow you to access rides and attractions without the need to wait in a queue.

Ride Access Passes are issued from Whistlestop Shop or The Box Office. To claim yours, you’ll need to provide one of the following:

•  Disability Living Allowance (DLA) or Personal Independence Payment (PIP) letter  showing that you receive the higher-rate mobility component
•  A letter from a GP or Consultant  which clearly states that you are unable to queue and why (we do not need a letter of diagnosis)
•  A current and valid Blue Badge
•  A current and valid Access Card

Please note that since they are not able to assess an individual’s abilities, we must insist that any letter from a GP or consultant states that you are unable to queue and why, rather than simply confirming your condition. This includes but is not limited to:

• Guests with Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes (including pump users)
• Asthma
• Epilepsy
• Guests with neurological behavioural, emotional and social difficulties, including; ADD, ADHD, ASD, ODD, etc.
