Disabled and visually impaired supporters

Disabled supporters will receive a ticket free of charge for their personal assistant/carer/companion when purchasing a ticket for themselves. To qualify for an ambulant disabled

 or wheelchair ticket, you will need to have provided the Charlton Athletic ticket office with a copy of your PIP/DLA letter. If you have not already done so, you will be unable to purchase an ambulant disabled/wheelchair ticket. 

If you wish to register your letter, please email a copy of it to ticketsid@cafc.co.uk. One of our ticket office team will then send a confirmation email back to you confirming that you have been registered and can purchase a disabled ticket. Please note that during this time the ticket office will be receiving a lot of enquiries so it may take some time to respond to your email. 

Wheelchair spaces

Disabled supporters’ tickets (both ambulant and wheelchair) are charged at the relevant price for the area in which you wish to sit, along with free personal assistant tickets. 

We have been allocated 120 wheelchair spaces, with 90 in the Lower Tier, and 30 in the Upper Tier.

Tickets will be sold under the same periods of sale and are only available online or over the phone. 

Disabled supporters who require a carer don’t need their helper’s FAN ID when purchasing. Please just use the FAN ID and postcode of the disabled supporter as this will allow you to book for you and your helper. The helper will show up as a zero value.
