Accessibility at the London Stadium

The missus and I are taking the boy to his first game against Leicester. He's in a wheelchair (albeit not confined to it) Had to rely on a family member to get tickets and it turns out we've been allocated 2 seats in block 148 for him and carer and one in block 152 which I believe is the equivalent to Bobby Moore Lower.

I've looked through the clubs accessibility plan and it states that there are 52 wheelchair viewing spaces at the back of the lower tier and that seating for ambulant disabled supporters (which my boy is) is available in the general seating admission seating areas with the carer being allocated the seat next them.

Just wondered if anyone had any experience of how this actually works in practice?

It's going to be our first visit to the bowl so want to make sure he has an enjoyable experience. Lucking he hates popcorn...

Re: Accessibility at the London Stadium

it worked very well when my mate was recovering from a scoliosis correcting op. there is a minibus you can catch from the transport hubs and it allw went smoothly. contact the club, they are very helpful on this.
