M&S Has Been Slammed for Launching A Clothing Line For Disabled Children Despite Having No Toilets Or Changing Rooms For Severely Disabled Shoppers - In ANY Stores

M&S has been slammed for launching a clothing line for disabled children despite having no toilets or changing rooms for severely disabled shoppers - in ANY stores.

Blogger Laura Moore, 41, has been begging the retail giant to install 'changing places' loos - ones with a hoist and large changing table - since 2016.

But M&S refused, with lawyers claiming it would "involve considerable disruption, significant financial investment and could have a negative impact on other services".

So Laura was furious when M&S launched a line of clothes for kids with disabilities this week - featuring velcro backs and feeding tube inserts.

The married mum - whose son William, nine, has quadriplegic cerebral palsy - took to Instagram and vented her angst in a video post.

She claims while M&S does have facilities with rails and an emergency cord - none of the 979 stores have loos or changing rooms suitable for people who can't lift themselves out of their wheelchair.

Laura's rant was watched by 11,000 people, her followers shot from 3,000 to 16,000 in hours, and she said she has received "thousands" of supportive messages.

More than 150 people have re-posted a letter slamming M&S and supporting Mrs Moore on Instagram, or recorded videos criticising the store
