For Visitors

Share once. Arrive prepared.

Your WelcoMe Key lets you share your access requirements with venues before you arrive. No repeating yourself. No explaining at the door. Just barriers removed and good service ready.

Free forever. Your data, your control.

How it works

Three steps to never explaining your requirements at the door again.

1

Set up your WelcoMe Key

Create your profile once. Add the access requirements that matter to you—nothing more, nothing less. You decide what to share.

2

Book at a WelcoMe venue

When you book, you'll see an option to share your requirements. One click connects your WelcoMe Key to your booking.

3

Arrive to a prepared venue

Staff know what barriers to remove before you get there. No explaining at the door. No scrambling. Just good service.

You're in control

WelcoMe is built around one principle: you decide. Not venues. Not us. You.

What you share

Share as much or as little as you want. General requirements, specific conditions, or just service preferences—your choice.

Who sees it

Your information goes only to venues you book with. You can revoke access anytime. Your data, your rules.

How you're served

Prefer efficient service? Want staff to take their time? Set your service style and venues will know how you like things.

Your dignity

No medical files. No pity. Just practical information that helps venues remove barriers and treat you like any other customer.

What visitors say

I used to dread explaining my requirements at every venue. Now I share my WelcoMe Key and just... arrive. They're ready for me.

Wheelchair user, Edinburgh

The service preference slider is brilliant. I set it to 'efficient' because I hate fuss. Staff get it now—they help when needed and otherwise let me get on with it.

Ambulatory wheelchair user, Manchester

For the first time, I felt like a customer, not a problem to solve. The theatre had my requirements before I arrived. No awkward conversations at the door.

Questions?

Is WelcoMe free for visitors?

Yes, always. Setting up your WelcoMe Key and sharing your requirements with venues costs nothing. Venues pay for WelcoMe—you just benefit from better service.

Do I have to share my diagnosis or condition?

No. You can share access requirements without ever mentioning a condition. "I need step-free access" is enough—you don't have to explain why.

What if a venue doesn't use WelcoMe?

You can suggest venues you'd like to see on WelcoMe. We'll reach out to them. The more customers ask, the more venues join.

Can I update my requirements?

Anytime. Access needs change—your WelcoMe Key changes with you. Update once, and future bookings reflect your current requirements.

Is my data safe?

Your data is encrypted, stored in the UK, and shared only with venues you explicitly choose. We never sell data. You can delete everything anytime.

This isn't about kindness.
It's about good service.

You're not asking for special treatment. You're asking for barriers to be removed so you can be a customer like anyone else. WelcoMe helps venues understand that—and act on it.

Venues don't use WelcoMe to be kind. They use it because prepared service is better service, and better service means better business. You benefit because barriers get removed. Everyone wins.

Ready to stop repeating yourself?

Set up your WelcoMe Key once. Use it everywhere. Arrive to venues that are actually ready for you.
