ECDSA Keeping City Fans in the Loop

The Exeter City Disabled Supporters' Association are pleased to announce that they have donated a personal audio loop to the Football Club.

This latest addition will enable supporters with a hearing deficiency to use the impressive new Reception, Club shop and all the meeting rooms with enhanced confidence. Another small step furthering the Association's aim to make the club and its facilities accessible to everyone.

The loop will be a big boost for supporters and visitors with hearing aids or cochlear implants. Providing personalised in ear sound. Pure sound undistorted by background noise and customised by the hearing aid to address individual deficiencies.

In the Club's plethora of meeting rooms it should minimise background noise and make being in a group of people a far more confident and pleasant experience.

The loop is a welcome supplement to the "Soccer Sight" service introduced earlier this year to provide a live in stadium commentary service on match days.

Apart from "Soccer Sight" Exeter City's equality services include limited match day parking, special access gate on a level surface complemented by ramps inside the stadium, normal lift and chair lift to hospitality and meeting rooms during the week, wheelchair designated areas with facilities for personal assistants, advance booking system for the ambulant disabled to ensure arrangements are sensitive to the particular difficulty. Naturally there are suitably adapted toilets in the ground and hospitality.

Further details of the club's equality services, access arrangements, Association Membership or the Club's Ability Counts football team can be obtained in the first instance from Nick Saunders - ECFC Disability Liaison Officer & ECDSA Chairman by emailing disability@exetercityfc.co.uk
