The church is accessible by road with disability parking bays in the High Street car park next to the Assembly Rooms. There is a disability toilet in the Leisure Centre car park and on the wall of the public toilets on High Street is a public access defibrillator AED. The front entrance on Church Street has steps along the path to the main door. Disability access to the church is on Potter Street through a gated entrance along flat pathways. Near to the Potter Street entrance is a disability roadside parking bay. In September 2017 planning permission was obtained to build a new annexe to the church building to give catering facilities and wheeled access from the Market Place.
