Wheelchair Access at Kent House or Clock House Railway Stations

I am a new mother and after lots of research into lovely young family areas in greater london, we discovered Beckenham/Penge area and decided it was a great place that many young families move to and have their families, so we did too!

For this reason alone I am shocked that both clock house and Kent house stations do not have access for wheelchairs and pushchairs, no non-stairs or lift access at either, I myself feel particularly restricted and less independent due to the fact that I can't just hop on the train to town really makes me not want to travel. On top of this my brother is a wheelchair user and does not visit due to the restricted access.

Beckenham junction is the only one with access, so you have to go backwards to go forwards as well as plan and add on much more extra time to your journey, which is not always possible and defeats the purpose and ease of having two local stations with such great links to central london.

As such a popular area for families I'm sure there are so many more mums/dads and wheelchair users that would agree with me and like to support this petition for change at, at least one of these stations, preferably clock house as this has different central london access (Charing cross/London Bridge) to Beckenham junction (victoria)


Let's show how many agree and support this necessity so that southeastern make the upgrade for us to have the independence and access to london again.
