Changing Places are designed for people who cannot, or find it difficult, to use a standard accessible toilet.

The government has £30 million available to district councils to establish more Changing Places across the UK. The focus of this grant is for new Changing Places in existing buildings. Norfolk County Council isn’t eligible to apply for this grant, but they have committed £600,000 to establish up to eight facilities in their own properties, such as some of their libraries.

They need help from people who might use Changing Places, and the organisations that support them, to make sure their proposals meet local needs and are good practice.

A feedback form is now online at https://norfolk.citizenspace.com/community-services/changing-places/

Why your views matter

Your views will help them shape their proposals for Changing Places in Norfolk County Council buildings before they present them to our County Councillors so that they can make a funding decision.

The district councils need to get their bids into the government by 26 September. They will share any early feedback with them to help support their applications. They will also use any feedback you give us when planning building projects in the future.
