Parking

Turn into Steeplechase LRP Centre from the entrance off Beach Road. Drive down the main entrance road until you reach the main gate. Our volunteers will be ready to receive you there.

The gate team will direct you where to camp and where you can park your vehicle.

Access and Disability Camping

We aim to make live roleplaying more accessible so that https://www.profounddecisions.co.uk/accessibility?3 can enjoy our events. We have accessible camps close to the main game and can make a range of adjustments for disabled players. Please see the accessibility page for more information.

Camping Areas

There are 4 main camping areas:

  • Out-of-character
  • In-character
  • Accesible
  • Crew

Please be aware that camping within the in-character requires you to have a thematically suitable tent. No polyester or modern-looking fabric tents can be used in the in-character camping areas, Most bell tents are fine, but the ideal is to have something that looks like a period tent that adds to the look-and-feel of our fantasy town, not something shiny or modern that will damage the immersion of the event.

If you have a modern style tent you can use that in the out-of-character area.

We have accessible camps spread round the site, so that participants with mobility needs can camp as close to the game as possible. The option to use these camps and the associated facilities is all on a self-declared basis. Many medical conditions are not obvious and non-disabled people may also find they need to use these provisions from time to time, be it due to injury, having children, or other caring responsibilities. These provisions are there for those that find they have need of them.

There crew camp is just for members of our volunteer team.

Toilets and Showers

There are toilets located within both the in-character and out of character areas. Showers are located on either side of the site near the main access road that goes through the centre.

Rubbish

Please make sure that all your rubbish is suitably bagged and disposed of in one of the skips before you leave site. Do not overfill your rubbish bags - more bags are available on request from GOD at any time. The skips is distributed around the main OOC field. Please ask for directions to the nearest one if you cannot find it.

Food Options

During events there are a range of food vendors on site in both the in-character area and the out-of-character area near the GOD tent.

You are welcome to bring your own food but please note that there are no refrigeration facilities on site.

First Aid Tent

We have a dedicated first aid team who are operate from a set of tents in the out-of-character area near GOD. Refrigeration for medication is available, but please check with us before the event to ensure easy access.

Ground Fires

Fires must not be set on the ground, they must only be lit on the oil drums provided or an equivalent that keeps the fire off the ground. Existing fire sites and should be completely extinguished each night. We arrange firewood for the site. Please do not throw rubbish that does not burn on a fire - particularly tins, bottles and bottle tops.

It will be some time before we are able to offer storage on-site because of logistical and planning restrictions.
