Dear Clare.
Recently we met the same scenario and decided to install our usual paper
towel dispenser in addition to the blade in a toilet block in which
accessible facilities were specially provided for disabled people.
Regards,
Glynn

Subject: [ACCESSIBUILT] Dyson Hand Dryers
I have a specific question regarding the new 'award winning' Dyson
airbalde hand dryers. A client has installed these in all WCs at a new HQ
including at lower level in the accessible cubicles. The question has
been raised as to whether these are 'accessible' as they require the user
to have more dexterity than a standard dryer...any experience/opinions
would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Clare
