On Wednesday of this week we at Changing Places Ireland met with the Minister for Disability Emer Higgins T.D. at Department of Children, Disability and Equality.
It was a very positive meeting and we hope that we will be able to work together to improve accessibility and raise more awareness about the importance of Changing Places Toilets.
Our wish is that all people with disabilities will be afforded the same opportunity to experience going out and about without having to worry about accessing a toilet appropriate to their needs.
