Answer To Question 3: The Trust do not hold data on each separate occasion a lift was not usable. The majority of the trust is covered by numerous lifts so one being out of action would not restrict step free access. The only exception is one lift that covers our Education Centre that was out for a number of weeks due to the failure of two major components.
