If accessibility cannot be ensured, the public entity may propose an alternative means of accessing the information.
If an entity refuses to comply with a request to provide accessibility or alternative access to information, a complaint may be filed about that action. Once all possibilities have been exhausted, a complaint can also be sent to the Ombudsman.
ARCHITECTURAL ACCESSIBILITY
The seat of Toruń Symphony Orchestra located in Toruń at 1-3 Aleja Solidarności is a building that belongs to the Culture and Congress Centre Jordanki commissioned in 2015 – it is fully accessible for the disabled.
The TOS administration is located in the building on the 2nd floor, which is accessible from the ground floor by a lift.
The building with concert halls is accessed from the surrounding streets without the necessity to climb external stairs. The main entrance to the building is directly at ground level. Vertical access between all levels of CKK Jordanki is ensured by appropriately-sized lifts.
In the first rows of the concert halls wheelchairs can be conveniently placed.
Toilets for the disabled are adapted so that users can freely use them.
The underground car park has a total of five parking spaces for the disabled on both floors. Exit from the car park is facilitated by a convenient lift.
Dressing rooms are also adapted for artists in wheelchairs.
The Culture and Congress Centre Jordanki also provides facilities for the blind and visually impaired – places and passageways are specially marked.
An induction loop has also been installed at the Culture and Congress Centre Jordanki. This is the colloquial name for a hearing aid with an induction (inductophonic) loop. It allows persons with a hearing loss to receive pristine, clear sound through the telecoil that almost every hearing aid is equipped with.
Information about using a sign language interpreter on-site or online.
• No such possibility.
