You can access the Changing Place accessible toilet in Sydney Gardens by calling Healthmatic on 01249 823143 for the entrance code.

Accessible toilets (Changing Places)

Standard accessible toilets do not meet the needs of all people with a disability. Therefore, a number of Changing Place facilities are available for people who require features such as a hoist, changing bed and additional space to use the toilets safely and comfortably. There are no charges for using these facilities.

The following locations have Changing Places facilities:

You can find full details on each of these facilities, including opening times and access arrangements, on the Changing Places website.

The Sydney Gardens facility is unmanned due to its location within the park. You can access the toilet by calling Healthmatic on 01249 823143 for the entrance code to the keypad on the door of the facility. This can either be done in advance of your visit, or whilst on site. This helpline number is also displayed on the door and inside the facility should there be any problems. Alternatively, you can email service@healthmatic.com, who will respond during office hours only.

Can’t Wait Cards

Living with a condition that means quick access to public toilets is essential? Several organisations issue Can’t Wait Cards and/or apps to help make asking to use toilets in nearby shops, restaurants and other non-public facing buildings much easier.
