Letter to the Editor: Ambulant toilets need a rethink

DEAR News Of The Area,

I WISH to draw the council’s attention to the ambulant toilets at Yarrila Place.

Obviously no-one on the planning committee has ever needed to access the ambulant toilets whilst on crutches, a stick or using a wheely walker.

Firstly the doors are very heavy, not easy If disabled.

The ambulant toilets are too narrow to allow a wheely walker to be manoeuvred so once you are in, opening the doors to get out is close to impossible.

Luckily for me my husband was close at hand to rescue me.

I seriously think the council needs to have a rethink.

Regards,
Jan TURNER,
Coffs Harbour.
