I'm supposed to reach the loo roll how?

I'm supposed to reach the toilet paper how?, originally uploaded by Lisy Babe.

The photo is of a toilet that looks fairly accessible at first glance: By which I mean there are several colour-contrasted handrails visible. Then you notice the toilet roll dispenser several feet higher. Where the toilet roll holder should be is a hand dryer. I did wonder if I was supposed to blow dry my ladybits.

I had to stand up to reach the toilet paper (and that was a struggle, but then when standing I'm still only 4'10") and, of course, a lot of wheelchair users can't stand up.

I'm not familiar with accessible design, but can you use the sink at all? There doesn't seem to be enough clearance to come close, judging from the pic.

That's about the one thing in this room that's OK. It's only a small basin which means that it doesn't get in the way of itself making the tap hard to reach.
