I am in a workplace where their firewall prevents me from using the Mail app on my iPad - or on any device. My iPad is wifi only. When I try to access my mail via the web, which works fine with my MacBook, I get to a screen that allows me to set up iCloud on my device, but doesn't allow me to access webmail.

Is there a way to access iCloud webmail on my iPad via wifi?

Thanks.

Ive never managed to do this using Safari or Chrome but there was a browser i used (can't remember the name) which allowed me to do it, i would suggest looking through the App Store and try serious different browser apps :)

Once you are on the iCloud.com website (set up on device screen) click the URL in Safari, swipe down a bit and than click "request desktop site".
