“I've suffered from Crohn's Disease for the last 5 and a half years, so it’s
fantastic to see a map like this become a reality ..”
“My husband has a bowel condition and it does restrict a lot where he can go
and what he can do for that very reason. “
• Criticism
“The only public toilet in my village is shown but it's in the wrong location,
sufficiently so that you wouldn't find it if need it urgently”
“The map has an edit facility - have you changed the location?”
