Disability Programmes

Wheelchair Curling

Lothian Wheelchair Curling Club (LWCC) enjoy roughly two hours on the ice here most Friday afternoons from either 12:15 or 12:45. Sessions are open to anyone with a physical disability who is at least 14 years old and uses a wheelchair. You must have your own wheelchair to participate but please note this does not need to be a sports chair.

All equipment for curling will be supplied. Sessions are £6.50 each and your first session is free. If you are attending regularly, you will be asked to become a member of Edinburgh Curling Club.

Please contact Dave Carr for information on joining.

 


BSL/Deaf-Friendly Sessions

The 2018/19 season saw our first sessions designed specifically for participants with hearing impairments. Our national governing body, Scottish Curling, can help organise suitable events with specially-trained coaches – for more info please contact them directly.

Read about the first BSL Try Curling session on the Scottish Curling website.


Bringing a Group

If you would like to bring a group with specific needs to the curling rink, we would be happy to discuss options, so please don’t hesitate to contact us.
