Accessibility & Inclusion
The Scitech Lab is accessible via the ground floor lift located opposite the ticketing office.
Scitech has a first aid room and toilet facilities, including an accessible toilet, a lift from the undercover car park, and all areas of Scitech that are wheelchair accessible.
The Scitech Discovery Centre is a fun and engaging place to visit, but sometimes the trip can be an overwhelming experience for guests with Autism Spectrum Disorder or other sensory concerns. To help make the experience more accessible and enjoyable, visitors can borrow a backpack free of charge to help make the most of their visit.
A limited number of backpacks are available on a first-come, first serve basis.
Upon arrival, simply ask about our Sensory Backpacks at the front desk, and our team can loan you a backpack for the duration of your visit (photo ID required). Please return backpacks to the front desk prior to departure.
Backpacks include:
Social Story to provide a visual guide on what to expect in the Discovery Centre.
Communication Cards – to help communicate needs and feelings
Ear defenders – provide a way to tune out unwanted sounds
Fidget toys – engage tactile, visual and auditory senses
Magnifying glass – engage with objects in a different way
Are you looking to experience a quieter, less crowded Scitech? The afternoons are usually quieter during non-school holiday and Toddlerfest periods.
A lift is available – it goes from the car park to the ground and first floor. The entrance to the Science Centre is on the first floor.
Our galleries and shows are all wheelchair accessible.
Accessible toilets are available inside the Science Centre on the first floor.
