Introduction

We manage and maintain many public toilets in major towns across Somerset. They include accessible toilets for the disabled and baby changing facilities. However, some public toilets are not handled by us and are managed by a range of other organisations including parish and town councils.

During the coronavirus outbreak we have continued to provide public toilets for customers and visitors. To limit the spread of COVID-19 the cleansing teams will carry out regular and enhanced cleaning at our sites. The toilet blocks are cleaned and checked twice daily, including sanitising door handles and touch surfaces.

RADAR keys

To use the disabled toilets, you will need a RADAR key. The key costs £4.00 and you will have to provide proof that you qualify.

You can get a RADAR key from:

Taunton Visitor Centre

Cartgate Picnic Site
A303/A3088
Stoke sub Hamdon

Or phone Compass Disability, Wellbeing Centre 01823 475250 and they will post a RADAR key to you.
