Travelling from Brighton to our Handforth clinic in Cheshire is a straightforward journey, and we want you to feel relaxed and prepared well before you arrive. By rail, the most reliable route is the direct or one-change service from Brighton into London, then northbound from Euston or St Pancras to Manchester Piccadilly — the full journey typically takes around four to four and a half hours. From Manchester Piccadilly, Handforth station is just a five-minute train ride on the local Styal line, and the clinic is a short walk from there. If you're driving, the M23 to the M25, then the M6 and M56 brings you straight into the SK9 area, with the journey taking roughly four to four and a half hours depending on traffic — we'd suggest avoiding the M6 around Birmingham during morning peak times. Parking on site is completely free, so no need to worry about meters or apps. Given the early starts many Brighton travellers face, packing a snack and a drink for the return leg is well worth it. Once your assessment is complete, you make the journey home just the once — your detailed report is sent electronically directly to your GP and school.
