Great to see more coverage of this - it's so important to change the narrative on accessible products! They can and SHOULD be attractive and affordable! #DesignForDignity #inclusivedesign
"Sadly, people's perceptions of accessibility and adaptations can be negative due to misunderstandings around products looking institutional.
However...easy to use products and design can still be attractive, and affordable."

That’s why we have a list of ‘other facilities’ on our website: changing-places.org/find_a_t… #Access #NotYourAverageToilet
