There are a number of qualified First Aiders at the tournament every day.

Please visit our volunteers’ desk (located at the entrance to the tournament) for any lost property enquiries.

After the British Open Wheelchair Tennis Championships, all lost property will be kept at Nottingham Tennis Centre.

The safety and security of our spectators are very important to us and our security plans are regularly reviewed. 

Our Event Volunteers are spread all over the tournament grounds. They are here to help you enjoy your visit, so don’t be surprised if they pop up to say hello if you look lost.

We hope you have a fantastic day at the British Open Wheelchair Tennis Championships, but if you do see something which doesn't look right, please tell the closest Volunteer, who will be more than happy to help.
