Changing places toilet

Plain English definition

From:

Think Local Act Personal (TLAP) Jargon Buster

Think Local Act Personal

A fully accessible public toilet for people with disabilities who are unable to use the toilet independently and need extra equipment and space. It is different to a standard disabled toilet, as it includes an adult-sized changing bench and a hoist, as well as enough space in the changing area for the disabled person and up to two carers. A map of where to find a changing places toilet can be found at www.changingplacesmap.org.uk.
