It has a range of specialist equipment, including:

  • a raised height toilet
  • height adjustable sink
  • an adult-sized changing bench
  • hoist
  • shower
  • colostomy bag shelf
  • space for carers.

 Accessing the facility

The facility is available for use 24 hours a day and can only be accessed with a RADAR key. If you need to borrow a key, we can help.
