East Renfrewshire Council has opened a state-of-the-art Changing Places Toilet facility in Rouken Glen Park.

The facility allows people with profound and multiple learning disabilities or with physical disabilities, a safe and comfortable space to use.

The new facility, which includes a free-standing adult sized bench, ceiling track hoist, peninsular toilet, accessible shower and colostomy shelf, can be found to the right of the park's pavilion building and accessed with a Radar key.


The project, which also includes a new baby-changing facility and upgraded public toilets, represents a significant investment and highlights our commitment to providing high-quality, inclusive and accessible facilities throughout East Renfrewshire.

East Renfrewshire Council Leader, Councillor Owen O'Donnell said: "Having to think about toilet facilities when we're out socialising, shopping or attending appointments is something lots of us take for granted, but for those with profound and multiple disabilities, it is something taken into consideration every time they leave their home. So I'm really delighted that we now have a Changing Places Facility in Rouken Glen which will allow more people to enjoy our fantastic park, knowing that suitable facilities are available for them and their carers to use."
