Stoma Friendly

In 2024, Council upgraded 40+ accessible public toilets across the Borough to become Stoma Friendly.

The upgrade was funded by the Council and the Department for Communities' Access and Inclusion Programme, which aims to promote a more inclusive society by enabling disabled people to participate more fully in arts, cultural and active recreation activities.

The upgraded toilets feature an additional shelf, hook, mirror and bin. Shelves provide a sanitary surface to lay out medical supplies, while a hook allows people living with a stoma to hang their personal belongings, and a mirror assists them when changing their bag.
