radar keys

[2shoes]

just got dd's key (at last got round to it} pleased to see loads of places I can use it. realised thet it will also be useful if she has afit.
can anyone tell me does each place have there own key or does the same key fit all.

The key should fit any i think,the one we have for work does.

Can you tell me please how you accessed this as it would be great for my son! but i have no idea where to get one?

ebay
i have one

Why have you got one Cod (I'm assuming Tara thingy is you)?

access into court

I am none the wiser...

ebay what were you looking for when you found that.

I got mine from the council no cost just had to show dd's blue badge
Anyone buying/selling on ebay

ah but fio people will do anthing rather than que

i got mine from the council at a cost of 3.50 didnt need to show proof of disability though which i thought was odd they fit all disabled toilets across the country

I'm appalled about finding them on Ebay. Next someone will say that you can get blue badges on there too!

You can buy them from Fledglings. I was also surprised when I got mine on the internet that there was no proof of disability required. I have 3 so DS always has one with him, I have one in my purse and one in his spare/weekend bag.

I've just looked on our local council website because I've been meaning to get a key for ds. They are free to local residents although you have to pay £6 for a replacement if you lose it. Also you have to have a letter from your doctor and photocopies of both sides of your blue badge. Seems like another service that varies depending on where you live which is a bit odd as it's a nationwide scheme.

I've just been on the RADAR website and ordered one, together with their Children First Guide at:

radar-shop.org.uk

The key costs £3.50, excl VAT (if you are entitled to 'VAT Relief for Disabled People') or £4.11, incl VAT. Both prices include delivery.
I've just received a confirmation email saying that they will be delivered within 14 days.

If ordering from their website, don't forget to tick the box for Gift Aid

if you order on a web site how do they check you are disabled? iynwim

I thought it was a bit odd when I was ordering it, but the way I look at it is - would anybody who is not entitled to use a Radar key actually go to the trouble of:
a) Finding and going to the website
b) Paying for it?

Maybe I'm just being naive

did you not see the thread a while back about people using disabled toilets I think it was in other.

Hi 2shoes, I hadn't seen that thread in 'Other Subjects' (I very rarely venture out of SN) but I've just read all 193 of the posts on there.
In my earlier reply on this thread, I wasn't talking about all disabled toilets, just the ones that are locked and you need a Radar key to get in.
I had no idea how to get a Radar key until I read it on Mumsnet.

still i suppose a lot of people wouldn't go to that much trouble to get one just to jump a Que.
so think you are right.
