Getting Here

The Asian Cultural Centre is located just off the Cowley road and is easily accessible with most methods of transport. Please note that the Asian Cultural centre is well signposted, and is located a little further down the road than the Mosque (Google maps confusingly shows a picture of the Mosque when you search for the venue).

Public Transport

The nearest bus stop is Manzil Way, a short 5 minute walk from the venue. Regular busses are available from here to/from the centre of town, and out towards Temple Cowley. There is also a nearby bus stop on Morrell Avenue.

Cars

There is limited parking at the venue. Priority will be given to those with accessibility needs. If you require a parking space for accessibility reasons, please let the GM team know. There is also plenty of on-street parking available from 6:30pm, on Manzil Way and in many of the nearby streets.

If you get there earlier, the Union Street Car Park is a paid car park not too far away.

Accessibility

The hall is located on the second floor of the Cultural Centre. There is lift access, but the lift is small - wheelchairs should be able to fit it, but power chairs may struggle. For a size reference, Anna's wheelchair is 63cm wide and 108cm long and fit very snugly.

There are gendered toilets, and an accessible toilet on the ground floor.

The space we have available is a single large hall. Due to the space, it may be loud and echoing during sessions. We do not have any other rooms in the venue booked, however there is corridor space and 2 staircases that are used to access the venue, if you need to take a break. We are also able to use the grounds outside (though noise should be kept to a minimum).

If you have any concerns regarding accessibility, please contact the GM team.

Pre- and Post-Session Social

For those of you who want to socialise before the session, there will be an informal gathering at the Cowley Retreat, around a 5 minute walk from the venue. Some people might gather there before the session, to get food/drinks.

After the session, those that wish to will gather at Sundaes for ice cream and socialising.

This can be a great chance to get to know your fellow roleplayers, especially if you don't know many other OLS members!
