Charlton Athletic Disability Parking Process

Dear CADSA members, we have received the below statement from CAFC with regards to parking at The Valley during the 25/26 season. As always if you have any questions please contact us on the email below or by filling in our website form here.

The Team at Charlton Athletic Football Club have worked with Charlton Athletic Disabled Supporters Association (CADSA) to review and develop the disability parking procedures for the 2025/26 season, which includes input from fans utilising the disabled car park facilities at The Valley.

Key Contacts for Parking enquiries

Kishan Parmar (Disability Liaison Officer) – disability.parking@cafc.co.uk

Tony Garrett (CADSA) – cadsa@cafc.co.uk

This coming season parking will be available for disabled season ticket holders in match blocks of 5. Parking will be on a first come first serve basis. In the event parking is fully booked supporters will be placed on the waiting list. Supporters who have been placed on the waiting list will be given priority for spaces in the event of cancellations. Supporters will only be able to book off spaces for games once an email has been sent out to Disabled Season ticket holders detailing the games available to book.

If a supporter is unable to attend a fixture and have booked disabled parking, it is important that they contact The Club via email (disability.parking@cafc.co.uk) or via telephone (02083334000) and explain that they cannot attend the fixture so we can provide the space to another fan to utilise the space. Supporters must notify The Club before 4pm on the day before the fixture is scheduled to be played. If a supporter fails to contact The Club on more than 2 occasions, they will be unable to book spaces for the next block of fixtures that are released for parking. We understand that emergencies occur and in these cases The Clubs Disability Liaison Officer will review these on a case-by-case basis and will be monitoring no shows.

The Club offers drop-off facilities for Supporters to drop passengers at the following locations: Valley Grove Entrance (located outside Away Turnstiles), Outside of The Club Shop, Outside of Harvey Gardens Car Park and outside the Lansdowne Mews Car Park Gate. In the event supporters cannot get a parking space in their desired car park, if available, they will be offered a space in an alternative car park and can utilise the above drop-off facility.

Please note that you must arrive to the ground 1.5hrs before Kick-off to avoid road closures. Anyone arriving after 1.5hrs may be asked to return at kick-off to gain entry to the car park.

The Club holds 2 Bays In the west stand car park for Away Disabled Supporters. The cut off point for away disabled supporters is 4pm the day before the fixture is to be played. In the event that the Away Disabled Bays are not claimed, these will be offered to home supporters on the Waiting list.

The Club has a total of 35 Disabled bays at The Valley: West Stand: 21 Bays (x2 Bays for Away Supporters), Harvey Gardens: 6 Bays, Lansdowne Mews: 8 Bays

Please see additional information below on the fixture blocks that will be available to book and the dates on which the club will email to allow bookings for each fixture block.

Please note all Cup Competitions will be booked separately and will be available 2 weeks prior to the cup fixture. To book parking for the cup games please email disability.parking@cafc.co.uk. Parking will again be on a first come first served basis.
