CPD Seminar: Best Practice in Accessible Bathroom Design

The objective of our seminar is to increase understanding in how people use accessible facilities. Are Part M packs suitable in every instance? The simple answer is no, alternative arrangements will be necessary for Changing Places facilities, school hygiene rooms and more generally where there is a reasonable expectation that users will be assisted by carers.

Our talk examines access and spatial requirements for using the toilet, basin and shower individually, and as integrated functions within a well thought out room design.

This CPD seminar is RIBA approved and a part of the RIBA CPD Core Curriculum.
