There is full disabled access to ALL facilities at the Scarborough Bowls Centre.

Special buggies are available that can be used on the green.

A registered Charity, the Bowls N'Buggies Club was formed on 27th October 1990 by people who were interested in encouraging those with disabilities to play the game of flat green bowls.The response was good and many joined the Club some of whom were in wheel chairs which are not allowed on the playing surface. However with the help of ScarboroughRotary Cavaliers who raised a significant amount of money special wheel chairs called 'Buggies'were purchased. Founded by Mike Roberts, the current membership of the club is around forty members although it has peaked at over seventy.

The Club meets every Saturday morning from 10am until 12 noon, with a short break at around 11am, playing on four rinks. Membership is open to all who have a disability including people with learning difficulties. 

If you wish to become a member of this club, or find out more information, the secretary Alyssia Beaney-Young can be contacted at the Centre on a Saturday morning or by telephoning him on 07969694579.
