Using the loo, is it on your Radar?
One of the things we know you can’t forget when planning a day trip, is making sure your child can go to the loo. Many accessible toilets are part of the National Key Scheme, so can only be used by people with a Radar key. If you haven’t already got one, you can purchase them for £6.00 from Disability Rights.
