Churchill Square Shopping Centre

This was a really nice shopping centre, it had lots of different types of shops available and a nice layout inside with seating available at regular intervals. There were maps located by the entrances which had easy to find symbols for accessible toilets and the Changing Places toilet. The Changing Places toilet was well-maintained with good working equipment. Quite a few of the shops had air conditioning which was really nice on the hot day I visited! One thing that was confusing on my visit was that it seemed they were replacing the lifts in the centre of the shopping mall. There was a lot of scaffolding where the lifts should have been and I was unable to find other lifts. Luckily, I was able to get to the places I needed, including the Changing Places toilet, without the lifts.

This was a really nice Changing Places toilet located on Level 6 in the Churchill Square Shopping Centre. It was located in the same area as the rest of the toilets and there was also a family room and baby-change room nearby. You need a RADAR key to access the toilet and the door opened outwards and wasn’t heavy. Inside was all the equipment you would expect, a ceiling hoist, a height-adjustable bench, a height-adjustable sink, a toilet, a privacy screen and even some additional chairs. The bench also had shower facilities next to it as well. The toilet was well-maintained and all the equipment was in good working order. The toilet felt nice and clean as well.

Just to point out if you use the Churchill Square car park under the shopping centre, they charge regardless of using a blue badge. All that allows you is the use of a disabled space on the ground floor to park, if one is available. Haven't personally tried this, as my wife has only just got her blue badge, but checking on the car park found out about the charges.
