Overview

Timpsons are part of the chain of lock, key, shoe and watch repairs that have diversified into lots of other areas. I went in here after getting some photos done for my Euan’s Guide profile page. Having not broken the camera with my appearance, it’s always a cheery shop to go into and listen the staff who work there. As they are close to the Blind School they welcome and encourage pupils and their staff into the shop to touch, sense and small the various experiences in this shop. Quite brilliant, and completely experiential as it should be. They are a busy location which shows the popularity and justifies where they are situated.

Transport & Parking

Bus Service on this main route in and out of the City is well provided in either direction, there is ample parking too.

Access

One small step into the shop, ample space a seat can be made available.

Toilets

N/A

Staff

Could not be more helpful, supportive and informative, seem to be a great hit with the pupils from the School.

Anything else you wish to tell us?

I think the fact that they are aware of the pupils and support staff from the School demonstrates a positive and proactive awareness of an area of disability.
