HOW sad that unlike most of the new-build shops, neither the Memorial Hall nor any of the church halls in Verwood have automatic entry for those struggling to enter with walking aids, wheelchairs, child/adult buggies. Only one even has a bell to ring for assistance. Perhaps when local planning officers and MPs also have mobility problems, this issue will be addressed and benefit all.
