Disabled toilet facilities have been upgraded by the Sarah Ann Trust at Midsomer Norton Town Hall – including the Public Toilet in the Town Council reception.

The work has been carried out in response to a story featured in The Journal and last year’s Midsomer Norton Town Shopper Survey; with every effort being made to ensure local people and visitors are aware that the Public Toilet in the Town Hall, in particular, is open during office hours from Monday to Friday.

Access into the Council Reception is at The Island end of the Town Hall, accessed with an automatic door and once inside, the Public Toilet is on the right.

“On behalf of the town, I would like to publicly thank local resident, Michael Moxham, who has been instrumental in giving the Sarah Ann Trust advice on upgrading the toilet facilities.

“As well as seeking to provide a Public Toilet the aim has been to ensure in the process that, within the constraints of the building, they are as accessible as possible to all,” said Paul Myers, Mayor of Midsomer Norton.

The aim now is to get the message out and a process of putting signage up on noticeboards of public toilet facilities in the town is underway which will also include reference to the national guide which all the town’s toilet facilities are included on at: https://greatbritishpublictoiletmap.rca.ac.uk/
