Changing Places are a campaign to get fully accessible toilets around the UK.
"Standard accessible toilets do not meet the needs of all people with a disability.
People with profound and multiple learning disabilities, as well people with other physical disabilities such as spinal injuries, muscular dystrophy and multiple sclerosis often need extra facilities to allow them to use the toilets safely and comfortably.
Changing Places toilets are different to standard accessible toilets as they have extra features and more space to meet the needs of people who use them."
Sarah Jane Brisdion of Hadley's Heroes produced a great christmas cover to raise awareness of the issue, take a look!
