Overall Rating
Good
The fire has a community centre for meetings. The accessibility was reasonable.
Disabled Access In and Around
Good
There is a ramp. There is a buzzer to get someone to open door. There is no braille label. The doors are automatic openers but require a button to open. There is a hearing loop system in place.
Parking & Transport
Good
Depending on what bus route you use there are 3 bus stops located near the fire station. One disabled pay at end of ramp.
Accessible Toilets
Good
There is a decent sized accessible loo. There are contrasting grab rails around toilet. Toilet is right side transfer but you'd need to move two bins out of the way. The toilet is not locked. There is a hand dryer but I didn't see any coat hooks. There is enough space to turn in a powerchair and a carer could fit in too however there is no changing place toilet.
