Dad with kidney stones is furious with daughter's school after he couldn't use the toilet

A dad has spoken of his anger and frustration after he was told he could not use the toilet at his daughter's school. Philip Davies, who is disabled and also had a painful kidney stone at the time, was denied access after he asked to use the facilities when he dropped his daughter off at a city college.

The 63-year-old, who has a spinal injury, said: "Because of my kidney stone, I need to go to the toilet very frequently. On this day, I felt the need to go, so after my daughter went on her way to her classes, I asked the receptionist if I could use the toilet which I could see behind the barrier, just a few yards away from where she was sitting.

"I had anticipated there may be an issue with this, so after she said she would ask the security staff, I warned her that I was recording the conversation." Mr Davies, from Manchester, said that when the security worker emerged he denied him access to the toilet, the MEN reports.
