Essential Companions Scheme
Our Essential Companion Scheme enables a disabled guest to receive the support they need when they visit our attraction.
This is also a way for the Grand Pier to make sure it looks after disabled guests. If you require an adjustment to visit us because of your disability, our team should make them for you whether you are part of the Essential Companion Scheme or not.
If you have questions about the scheme and how it works please contact us.
To apply, the person requiring assistance must be 8 years of age or older.
Please complete the attached form before you arrive and present this alongside the eligibility evidence, and your companion won’t need to pay an entry fee.
It’s in your name so you can bring whomever you like, but even if you don’t have an Essential Companion card, when you arrive you can collect the paperwork to get started.
An Essential Companion must be over 14 years of age and capable of assisting the guest with the disability. The Essential Companion would be expected to understand the disabled person’s condition and assist them in managing it for the duration of the visit. For example, if the disabled person finds communication difficult due to a diagnosed medical condition, the helper would be expected to take responsibility for ensuring the disabled person is aware of relevant safety information displayed on any signage or communications on our public address system.
Eligibility
You will need to provide evidence that the card holder receives one of the following:
- Disability Living Allowance (DLA)
- Attendance Allowance (AA)
- Personal Independence Payment (PIP)
- Armed Forces Independence Payment (AFIP)
- Blind Persons Registration
You will need to bring a copy of the awarding letter from DWP or a statement confirming receipt of the allowance for the person requiring assistance (the card holder).
This should be dated within the last 12 months.
Alternatively, if you are a Registered Blind Person then please bring a photocopy of certification for the person requiring assistance (the card holder). Please note that ESA (Employment and Support Allowance) or the Blue Badge on its own are not accepted as proof of eligibility
