Throughout the Summer we are running a campaign called 'Funny Faces for Changing Places'. 

The campaign is raising funds for additional Changing Places toilets in our area. 

There are currently 24 in Derbyshire and the Peak District but more are desperately needed.

Without them the 250,000 people who need them are forced to stay at home, go out for just 2 hours at a time or face being changing on a public toilet floor. As you can imagine this is unhygienic, undignified and unacceptable in modern-day Britain.

Changing Places make a huge difference. They have an adult sized changing bench and ceiling track hoist meaning that those who need them can be changed with dignity and enjoy more of the beautiful part of the world in which we live along with their families, friends and companions.

If you are able to support us by making a donation you will be helping to make a huge difference to the lives of some very deserving people.

You can make a donation through this campaign page or by texting FACE04 and the amount e.g. £5 to 70070.

As well as donating to our campaign we are also asking people to pull a funny face (you can use face paints or props if you like) and send it to us at info@accessiblederbyshire.org. Alternatively, you can tweet your funny photo to @AccessibleDS or post it on the Accessible Derbyshire Facebook page.

The funniest face will win a fabulous prize for themselves and their family!
