Changing Places are specialist facilities designed for those within the disabled community who cannot use standard accessible toilets. For example, standard accessible WC’s are designed for access by a standard wheelchair, but they are unlikely to provide adequate space for a powered wheelchair, or a wheelchair with additional head or leg support fittings. Standard accessible WC’s are also only designed for independent use by the individual and there is usually insufficient room to accommodate a carer /carers if the user requires assistance.
Changing Places are specially designed and include specialist equipment to meet the needs of every user within the disabled community.
