Does anyone know where to get radar keys from and the process? (Radar keys allow the user to access disabled toilets)

Also does anyone have any advice for claiming disability benefits for fibromyalgia sufferers?

Members shared practical advice on where to purchase radar keys for accessing disabled toilets in the UK, with suggestions including Amazon (around £5), local councils, Ableworld's website, and other online retailers for as little as £1.50. Several members opened up about their experiences applying for disability benefits like PIP and DLA, with mixed results, some receiving the lowest care component while others faced rejection even after appeals. A recurring theme was the value of seeking help from local support groups, such as fibromyalgia or autism groups, and Citizens Advice for benefits guidance and application support.

Hi, i bought my radar key for my daughter from Amazon ( it was about £5 i think ) at the beginning of the year. Also your Local Council should have them for sale quite cheaply. I'm just filling out daughters PIP forms so she can move over from DLA. She is Autistic and has cfs and fibro, and the local Autism support group were a great help. Do you have a local fibro/cfs group near you ? They may be able to help, or failing that i have heard Citizens Advice are very good, and will give advice and run a Benefits Check for you.Take care .x
