Restrictions
Vehicles
Cars are not allowed inside Victoria Park unless they are blue badge holders (max speed limit: 5mph).
Cycling
Cyclists are allowed in the park but we ask all cyclists to be considerate and safe.
Dogs
Dogs are not allowed in the children's play areas.
Accessibility
All Victoria Park's public toilets have an accessible cubicle and both our cafés are accessible for wheelchair users.
We have installed a new changing places toilet facility at Victoria Park.
Changing places are designed so that they are completely accessible and provide enough space and equipment for people who are not able to use the toilet independently.
Both our community buildings offer step-free access.
Vehicle Access for Blue Badge Holders
Blue Badge holders are permitted to access the park by vehicle; however, to help reduce overall vehicle activity within the park grounds and maintain a safe and pleasant environment for all visitors, we strongly encourage Blue Badge drivers to make use of the designated disabled parking bays located in our two main car parks. We appreciate your cooperation in helping us preserve the tranquillity and safety of the park for all users.

Trees for Cities
We improve lives by planting and caring for trees in cities. Trees for Cities is the only national UK charity dedicated to urban trees. We get stuck in with local communities to cultivate lasting change in their neighbourhoods – whether it’s revitalising forgotten spaces, creating healthier environments or getting people excited about growing, foraging, and eating healthy food.
