Title: Toilets For The Disabled, UK Map Wanted.
Post by: tickmike on June 12, 2011, 04:37:26 PM: We sometimes take a friend out who needs the disabled toilets and has been given a 'Radar' key to get in them, But the main problem for us is finding the toilets.
As anyone got or knows where I can download a free UK map with the toilets marked on ?

We know they are on sale from the radar web site. !

Second link only seems to have a small database as it's still an ongoing project.

Anybody know of any more sites ?.

You`d need to plan in advanced where you are going, but its free.

Crematoriums have disabled facilities, I checked a few locations and they aren`t listed, ALL should have disabled facilities available, most will not be in-town and maybe just outside so well worth checking beforehand - most will likely only be office hours - I guess most wouldn`t think of these, but as they sometimes "needs must" and generally the facilities are clean and checked throughout the day.

Post by: geep on June 13, 2011, 11:01:09 PM: Just took a look at needaloo. For my town it's quite out of date. Most loos have been closed by the council in order to save money. I suspect that this is becoming common. Don't forget that most big Sainsburys and Tescos have loos suitable for disabled people - but I guess you already know that.
Cheers,
Peter

Yes we did, But we found out last Saturday, after 10pm they are closed :( (re Sunday trading law )
Also we found some of the new 20p pay toilets the 'Radar key' does not fit.
