Kingkraft Provides Changing Places Facility at Chester Zoo
Chester Zoo is a leading zoological centre with over 7,000 animals and 400 different species including some of the most exotic and endangered species on the planet. With 1.4 million visitors a year, the zoo is an all-year-round attraction and therefore facilities need to be world class.
Kingkraft was chosen by Chester Zoo to help undertake refurbishment in the Jubilee toilets and provide equipment suitable for a ‘Changing Places’. Chris Williams, Zoo Services Manager, said: “We are delighted to announce that we can now offer a fully accessible facility. Kingkraft are leaders when it comes to providing accessible bathroom equipment and we are now confident that we can cater to the needs of all our visitors.”
Changing Places toilets are different to standard disabled toilets, catering for people with profound and multiple learning disabilities, as well as other serious impairments such as spinal or brain injuries. They often need extra facilities to allow them to use toilets comfortably. The Chester Zoo Jubilee toilets now come fully equipped with extra features including an adjustable changing table, ceiling track hoist, and a variable height basin plus enough room for at least two carers.
Kingkraft has been manufacturing and installing assisted bathroom equipment for over 25 years and the knowledge which has been built up over the years has allowed the company to offer a full design and installation service.
