SEVERELY disabled patients are struggling to get to appointments because of an error at Musgrove Park Hospital in Taunton.

Access to the disabled parking spaces outside Alfred Morris House has been blocked by a barrier.

Physiotherapists are regularly having to rush out of the building to call parkign managers to raise the barriers when patients arrive and leave.

Judith Perrett from Comeytrowe Lane, Taunton, who has spastic quadriplegia, was unable to get through when she arrived to see her physio on Tuesday (September 6).
