Disabled loos

Radar keys, the right size, where are they, people using them when they shouldn't? There are so many things to write about. But what about when a location has their disabled loos in awkward areas? Down long corridors, behind heavy doors which pull outwards so someone operating a chair or pushing one has to hold it open with their foot, while hoping to edge the chair through? People who design these facilities - STOP THINK DO! Just go through it with a wheelchair user or a disabled person. They will tell you what you need to know. Or just observe them. That provides all the information you need. Common sense approach rather than sit round a table Apprentice style with no understanding of the users. Rant over!
