Disabled access

The Foreign & Commonwealth Office and this Embassy are keen to ensure that their buildings and services are fully accessible to disabled members of the public. Wherever possible, we have made our buildings and services accessible. Sometimes however, this is not possible due to security or other restrictions. In these situations we will endeavour to provide a service or access to a building in an alternative way to ensure equality of access for disabled people. To assist disabled visitors, we have set out below details of disabled access at this Embassy. We hope this information is helpful.

General physical access
If you foresee requiring any assistance, please telephone us in advance of your visit so we can ensure that we are able to provide access for you (Tel: +972 (0)3 725 1222 and ask for the Security Manager).

  • Entrances: Disabled access exists to the Embassy and the Consular Section. Please telephone +972 (0)3 725 1222 for assistance in advance.
  • Steps and staircases: Clear and unobstructed.
  • Toilets: There are disabled toilets in the Consular Section but not the Embassy.
  • Floor coverings: Floor coverings are safe and even.
  • Doors: If necessary, the security guards can assist in opening doors.
  • Lighting: Adequate throughout.
  • Emergency/evacuation: Procedures are in place to assist disabled persons in the event of  emergency/evacuation.
  • Phones: Accessible to wheelchair users.

Contact us
If you need to visit us or use our services and feel that they may be inaccessible to you, please contact Udi Lahav, Security Manager, or Harvey Bowyer, Embassy Resource Manager who will try to find an alternative way of providing access for you.
