About RADAR Keys

The National Key Scheme (NKS) offers independent access to disabled people using public toilets in Brighton & Hove where RADAR key locks are fitted.

We know that those who do not consider themselves to be disabled can suffer with conditions which make access to a public toilet an essential part of engaging with their local community.
