DID YOU KNOW? Ice skating is accessible to wheelchair users -no special equipment needed!
It’s been 1 week since our unforgettable final skate with the Glasgow Clan, & we’re still buzzing. Huge thanks to the players for the warm welcome & fast skates that made it so special for our PAMIS families.
The #ChangingPlaces toilet at Glasgow Central Station is currently out of order due to water leak. The Network Rail team are investigating this and it will hopefully reopen soon.
For those who need a facility, the closest CPT is the St Enoch Centre and Glasgow Queen Street.

World Toilet Day 2025 focuses on 'sanitation in a changing world' with the constant truth - ‘we’ll always need the toilet'.
This vital campaign highlights the urgent need for future-ready toilets that are resilient, sustainable, and, critically, accessible. This vital campaign highlights the urgent need for future-ready toilets that are resilient, sustainable, and, critically, accessible.
This is why Changing Places Toilets are essential! Changing Places toilets go far beyond standard accessible toilets, providing crucial equipment like an adult-sized changing bench and ceiling track hoist. They represent the gold standard of accessibility, ensuring that people with complex disabilities and their carers can also benefit from the human right to safe sanitation, no matter where they are.
