Accessible Toilet & Baby Changing Unit
The unisex accessible toilet and baby changing facility is located off the first floor foyer, towards Cinema 1. The door is operated with a RADAR key available from the Café/Bar and Box Office.

There is an emergency alarm in the accessible toilet should you require assistance from a member of staff.
