Co-op

Address and phone number	80-88 Heol Maengwyn, SY20 8EE. 01654 703998 Google Maps link
Entrance	The front entrance from the main road is permanently closed, in spite of a community petition and press coverage of the accessibility implications. Pedestrians have to get in by going along the road towards the car park to reach the rear entrance. The turning down this route from the main pavement is a narrow, blind corner with a slight slope. The rest of the route is level, along a marked-off section of the road (not a pavement). The automatic doors at the entrance sometimes fail to recognise wheelchair users. The inner automatic doors sometimes do not open fully, leaving only a narrow space which is wide enough for some wheelchairs but may be too small for others.
Inside	Level access to all parts of the shop and checkouts.
Outdoor areas	Step-free access thoughout the car park, with some slopes.
Toilets, etc.	Toilets are past the checkouts and to the left. There is a wheelchair-accessible full-room bathroom.
Notes	A transit wheelchair is available near the checkouts (unknown functionality). A bench is placed near the checkouts. There are both manned and self-checkouts.
