A new accessible changing and toilet facility for adults with disabilities has been supported by Rugby Council's Conservative cabinet for installation in the Rugby Central shopping centre.

Cllr. Carolyn Robbins, the council's conservative portfolio holder for Corporate Resources, said in a recent press release: "We want to make it as easy as possible for all of our communities to come into Rugby town centre to shop, to socialise or to do business, and an important part of that is having the right facilities to allow people to live their lives with dignity. The Changing Places consortium estimate that more than 230,000 people need help to use a toilet or change their pads, so the need for this facility in a growing town like Rugby is very clear."
