Car Park & Drop Off Instructions

Parking is always busy at Infinity Gymnastics events, so if possible, PLEASE WALK.

However if you do need to drive, please read the following instructions:

· Please by mindful of our neighbours by not parking in Pevensey Road or the turning spur just outside The Ghyll.

· If The Ghyll car park is full, please drive round to the overflow car park off Fairbank Road, beyond Lintot Square. This takes a while so please allow plenty of time. Also, please don’t leave your car there after the event as it gets locked up.

· Cars with a disabled badge and occupant or those without a badge but with occupants on crutches / in wheelchairs can use the limited number of marked disabled bays opposite the entrance to The Ghyll car park. However this is limited as we also need to keep space for emergency vehicles, so please book a space in advance with us, advising the make, model, colour and registration number.

· Always supervise children at all times and take car walking in the car park. · Observe the speed restriction and don’t use your mobile phone while driving.

· The Ghyll has parking to the left and right as you enter, so to give the vehicle in front more time to park, please turn the opposite direction to fill up both sides.

· Park within the white lines in the car park. If you have a particularly wide or long vehicle, please park in the overflow car park off Fairbank Road.

· If dropping-off unaccompanied children, please park up.

· There is no designated drop-off area for dropping-off adults and accompanied children, so if busy please park up to avoid causing congestion, or use the overflow car park.
