The curtain is something preferred by the Mencap campaign "Changing
Places".
"Some disabled people need support to transfer from their wheelchair to
the toilet, but would then like privacy while they are using the toilet.
Similarly, carers do not want to leave the person they care for outside
while they use the toilet. A screen or curtain should be available to
provide privacy for both the disabled person and their carer"
