AT a time when Bolton Council is shutting town centre loos, Bolton College is opening one for guide dogs.

Full marks to the college for providing the facility which will enable students with guide dogs to spend full days at the college instead of nipping home at lunch time so their four-legged friends can spend a penny.

Chairman of governors, Cllr Cliff Morris says Bolton College prides itself on catering for everyone's needs.

That's an excellent attitude. Perhaps Cllr Morris can prevail on his fellow members of Bolton Council to adopt the same stance.

We reiterate our call for the Council to build more loos.
