Default Gatwick to Richmond

Will be traveling from Gatwick to Richmond with a friend who has some
health issues. We will have a bit of luggage. When using the Journey
Planner the route was Gatwick Clapham Junction Richmond. It looks like
stairs may be an issue at Clapham Junction. Would it be better to take the
train to Victoria and then the Underground to Richmond. Would stairs come
into play with the itinerary?
Thanks for any suggestions.

Use the "more search options" feature on the journey planner and specify
that you require no stairs under the mobility requirements. An alternative
shown is getting off at London Bridge, taking the Jubilee line to Waterloo,
then taking a mainline train direct to Richmond. That involves escalators
rather than stairs.
