Stoma since 2010 due
to Cancer
Whilst having a stoma can be classed as a disability under the Equalities Act, I have never considered myself as having a disability, just having a different way of going to the toilet. It soon became apparent that suitable toilets for the disabled are not provided as the norm for instance in pubs and restaurants. As a result, I began to choose where I had an outing to ensure that I could access suitable disabled facilities.
