Travelling from Dudley to our Handforth clinic is more straightforward than it might look on the map. By car, most clients head north on the M6, joining the M56 eastbound and then following the A34 into Handforth — allow around an hour and fifteen minutes depending on traffic, and please note there is free parking directly on site, so there is no need to worry about meters or time limits. By rail, the most reliable route is into Birmingham New Street, then a direct train to Manchester Piccadilly, where Handforth station is just five minutes further on the same line — total journey time is typically around two hours. A practical tip for anyone coming from the Dudley direction: the morning M6 around Junction 10 near Walsall can be slow, so leaving a little earlier than you think necessary is always worthwhile. Once your assessment is complete, you make the journey home just once — your detailed report travels electronically, sent straight to your GP and school on your behalf.
