Carers and Paid Personal assistants

If you have a carer or paid personal assistant, you can apply to add them to your card which means when accompanying you they will receive discounted entry on a range of leisure activities and discounted rates at Rotherham Theatres. These discounts are subject to availability and may vary according to the visiting producer/show.

  • Attendance Allowance

  • Personal Independence Payment (Daily living component)
  • Disabled Person's Tax Credit
