    Poor for disabled people

    we went to Southport on 5 of July we haven't been for a while i have never come across what I'm going to tell you all anywhere I have been, most disabled people carry a radar key with them go to Southport and this radar key you will not find a lock on any disabled toilet that has one fitted, I will not return to Southport again this key system is so disable people have access to toilet facilities as most of us don't carry money anymore i seen the sign for a disabled toilet of i went crossing the road to get to it only to find there was no lock for Radar key I have wrote to Sefton Council as yet I have no reply, i have asked do you supply the local disabled people with a radar Key ? if so where will they be able to use it?

    Over all very disappointing

    We love going to Southport but well i feel it is time to give it a wide birth, there are disabled toilets but unfortunately your radar key does not give you access to these, after speaking to my MP who contacted the council this was there reply to him . Dear Jonathan.reynolds.mp@parliament.uk ME - (Case Ref: JR32641) - Public Toilets 12585081 RE: Jonathan.reynolds.mp@parliament.uk In response to your query received on 13 October 2023, regarding the use of Radar Keys for public toilets. I can advise it was a Council decision made many years ago when the DANFO toilets were brought in, it was a one size fits all approach which would neither advantage nor disadvantage any members of the public wishing to use the facilities”.I am very sorry this will not be the response you were hoping for, and the reply received is not one I would have expected. Yours sincerely Jonathan Reynolds MP Member of Parliament for Stalybridge and Hyde myself i feel this is discrimination to disabled people i will not be visiting anymore im rather ashamed of Sefton Council why do they supply there disabled people with radar keys only for them not to able to use them in there own town very poor
