Travelling from Wakefield to our Handforth clinic is more straightforward than you might expect, and many clients from West Yorkshire tell us the journey feels well worth it. By rail, the most reliable route is from Wakefield Westgate or Wakefield Kirkgate into Leeds, then across to Manchester Piccadilly, where you pick up a Northern service on the Crewe line — Handforth station is just a five-minute walk from our door, with the whole journey typically taking around ninety minutes to two hours depending on connections. If you prefer to drive, the M62 westbound joining the M6 southbound and then the M56 brings you comfortably into Handforth in roughly similar time, and you will find free on-site parking waiting for you when you arrive. A practical tip for anyone coming from the Wakefield direction by train: book your Manchester Piccadilly to Handforth leg in advance, as these shorter connecting trains can be busy mid-morning. Once your assessment is complete, you make that journey just the once — your detailed report travels electronically, straight to your GP and school on your behalf.
