New changing places toilet opens at Noble's Hospital

It's the third public one to be made available on the Island

A new changing places toilet has officially opened at Noble's Hospital.

It's a disabled toilet with equipment such as hoists, adult-sized changing benches and space for carers.

Manx Care committed to the facility, which has been funded by the Noble's Hospital Patient Comforts Fund, last July.

It's the third public one on the Island - the others are in the Manx Museum and the Little Switzerland Tesco.

Barbara Scott, Chair of the Trustees of the Noble’s Hospital Trust, commented: "It is wonderful that we have been able to fund and facilitate this much needed space. By utilising this area we are able to provide the community with a ‘checkpoint’ that they know can be accessed at any time of the day and have everything that they may require."
