Alexandra Park

The park is fantastic, smooth paths the whole way through. It gets rather hilly the further you head away from town. The cafe is fully accessible (outside of COVID restrictions). The disabled toilet by the Ranger’s office is a bit tricky to use if you’re on your own. The door has an auto-closure mechanism so you have to have the strength to pull the door open. There is no handle so you have to use your Radar key as the handle. Once inside, there’s plenty of space to turn. Toilet transfer is leftwards from your wheelchair once you’re parked next to the toilet. Once on the loo, the toilet paper location means you have to twist to your left and reach behind yourself. The flush is a bit tricky to reach, especially if you’re unable to twist and stretch. The taps are push button, so again they require some arm strength. You might want to take your own hand wash too because they are using bars of soap.
