While not common, I've seen people in wheelchairs at clubs.

What sort of advice are you looking for?

While I love to give advice I am generally not much good at profile advice, since my opinions usually go contrary to everyone else's.

As far as clubs go, some are just not set up to get around in easily unless you can manage stairs, so -- maybe pick the ones that look interesting and contact them for accessibility?

Just a thought do the access rules for shops and pubs etc apply to clubs?

OP most swingers clubs aren't wheelchair accessible. They are not in purpose built buildings and are usually on different levels with no lift etc.

The only one I know of that is fully accessible is quest which is owned/managed by a wheelchair user (I think). There have been other threads about this in the past so a forum search may throw up some more advice.

Kestrels/Abfabs is the most wheelchair accessible we've seen.

Ps. OP, read your profile and couldn't help but comment... naked skydiving sounds great but if you do. Strap the little fella to your leg 1st. Only so much flapping around at terminal velocity you want

About the skydive I'll tape it good and tight.

Would you ever do one ?

Most clubs are on different levels, the best one as mentioned is Kestrels/ Abfabs. Are we reading your post right & that your question relates to you, as there is no mention of any disability in your profile, which is a tad misleading?

"Just a thought do the access rules for shops and pubs etc apply to clubs?"

Yes, almost certainly, as they are probably are classed as 'Service Providers' under The Equality Act 2010. The regulations require 'reasonable adjustment', so are not obligated to make adjustments if they are unreasonable. (An interesting consideration, and not wanting to high jack the the thread, is that they may be in breach of the regulations by having different membership rates / entry fees for single males.)

Over the years, we have seen a couple of wheelchair users at AbFab

Most other clubs, which we visit, are not accessible for wheelchair users

No. If they did then the majority would have to shut down.

I don't think it's bad you've not stated on your profile your a wheelchair user. I'm assuming that's not the biggest part of you? Pun not intended lol!

I'm dyslexic and don't have that on my profile! We're far more than disabilities and anyone worth an ounce of credibility won't be bothered your in a wheelchair. So what your legs don't work! If your cock works all is good. Good luck with the club visit OP xx

Wrong. Please at the very least do a five minute Google search before commenting on a subject that you know little about. This has even been answered many times previously on this very forum.

I don't see why or how it is misleading or why you need to shout about it on your profile. It's not what defines you nor wholly relevant until you decide the time is right for it to be mentioned. Happy fabbing

OP; if you are a wheelchair user then I think you should mention it on your profile as it is hardly a slight disability, such as dyslexia, which has no impact whatsoever during a sexual encounter

Anyway, it is your profile and you should manage it as you wish. But I would not impressed if I expected a non-disabled man and he turns up to meet with me in a wheelchair

But each to their own

There was a chap in a wheelchair at AbFabs last time I was there, access wasn't a problem for him

Oh I wouldn't turn up to a meet not having told them I was in a chair. That would be some shock.

I let them get to know me first and see if they like me.

Thanks for your advice

To be honest we found abfabs quite difficult to get around and that was with mr doing the pushing around, don't know how someone who propels themselves would manage.

"Quick question.

Liberty Elite used to have wheelchair users at some of the kink events. They can put out a ramp at the entrance and at the two steps near the bar. Getting into the hot tub is harder as there is no ramps for the steps into it. You wouldn't be able to access the few private rooms upstairs but the rest is accessible.

Not sure which bit you consider to be wrong, so yes, a 5 minute Google search will help you. Happy to provide links to assist. Love and peace.

Your second statement in brackets is totally incorrect

Your first statement is correct in as much as businesses have to make reasonable adjustments

Reasonable adjustments would be something like that they spend £10,000 because they have 100 wheelchair users who are their customers. It would be unreasonable for them to spend £10,000 because there is one wheelchair user who visits their store once a year

Another unreasonable example would be that a building is torn down and rebuilt because they have 1,000 wheelchair users but there is no practical way to provide them with access unless the building is torn down and rebuilt with them in mind
