St. Paul's
United Church
Improves Access

FTLComm - Tisdale - September 24, 1998

Over the summer Tisdale's St. Pauls has undergone some important renovations to make the church more accessible. As you come up the ramp to the main entrance the newly installed automatic door greets you allowing a wheeled member to roll right on up the ramp to the main level.

The diagram below right describes the workings of the just installed elevator that makes movement to the basement effortless. Rev. Heather Anderson explained the importance of these new features as it continues to expand the church's accessiblity to the membership.

The renovations also included rebuilding the washroom on main floor with the installation of a change table and making the area spacious.

Within the church itself space has been created in several areas for wheel chair parking that includes the wheeled member amidst the rest of the congregation.
