The Centre at Birchwood Park, Warrington
Located in the heart of the Birchwood science Park on the outskirts of Warrington, the centre is only 1 mile from Junction 11 of the M62, 2 miles from Junction 21 of the M6. It is an excellent purpose built conference facility.

Rail Travel Directions
Warrington itself has good rail connections from Wigan, preston and the North (Bank Quay); Crewe and the South and Chester (Bank Quay); Yorkshire, Manchester and Liverpool (Central).
The conference centre is not located near the main stations. If travelling by train, please take careful note of these instructions.
From Warrington Bank Quay or Warrington Central stations, we advise taking a taxi, which normally takes 15-20 minutes.
There is a rail service roughly every half hour to Birchwood station (on the Manchester - Liverpool line). This is a short taxi ride away from the centre (it is actually within walking distance, but it is not a pleasant walk through the Science Park and we do not advise it). Taxis are normally available outside the station. If there are none when you arrive, you can order a taxi by telephoning Crown Cabs on 01925 234567, who are based at the station. A good idea is to phone for a taxi in advance by mobile.
If you need a taxi back after the event, our receptionsist will organise this for you.

Parking Information
There are two large car parks next to the conference centre. Park on either of them, but avoid the green bays closest to the Centre as they are now reserved for the clients of the gym.
Arrival Instructions
You should enter the Conference Centre by the South Entrance. (If you enter by the North Entrance by mistake, you will need to walk right through a large staff canteen/restuarant to reach the South Entrance). Our reception will normally be just inside the main entrance foyer.
The Conference Centre is fully and reasonably accessible for disabled people. There have been a number of alterations in this respect, including the installation of a stair lift. We can normally arrange car access right up to the entrance. Please get in touch with us in advance if you would like this to be arranged.
