A Turnkey Changing Places Toilet Project: The Selsey Centre

Nestled in the charming coastal town of Selsey, The Selsey Centre has long been a cornerstone of community engagement since its establishment in 2007. Offering an array of activities and event spaces for hire. Now, a groundbreaking transformation is underway as the installation of a Changing Places facility promises to enhance accessibility and inclusivity for all.

Turnkey Solution Providers

At the heart of this initiative lies a commitment to ensure that everyone, regardless of ability, can fully participate in the community life that Selsey has to offer. Spearheaded by Selsey Town Council, in collaboration with a dedicated team of professionals including Astor Bannerman, WWa, HNW Architects, ITD Consultants, and Premier Group, the project aims to redefine standards of accessibility within the town.

The journey towards realising this vision began with meticulous planning and collaboration. Astor Bannerman played a pivotal role by overseeing the project as a turnkey solution provider. From assisting the architect in refining the internal layout and specifications during the design phase to emerging as the preferred contractor at the tender stage, Astor Bannerman ensured a seamless and comprehensive approach at every step of the way. Through a rigorous value engineering process, the project was fine-tuned to align with budgetary constraints without compromising on quality or functionality.

Changing Places, Changing Lives

The installation of the Changing Places facility represents a significant milestone in the ongoing evolution of The Selsey Centre. Part-funded through the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUCH). By reconfiguring the existing toilet block, the center aims to not only meet regulatory standards but also to serve as a welcoming space for disability groups, ensuring they can fully utilise and enjoy the center’s amenities. Central to the Changing Places facility are features designed to enhance comfort, convenience, and safety. The installation includes: 

Astor Invincible Height Adjustable Changing Table 

ABW-CP Height Adjustable Wall Mounted Wash Basin

OT200 Overhead Ceiling Track Hoist

KwickScreen Wall Mounted Privacy Screen 

Beyond its practical implications, the installation of the Changing Places facility represents a symbolic gesture of inclusivity and solidarity within the community.

Setting New Standards

In conclusion, the installation of the Changing Places facility at The Selsey Centre marks a significant turnkey triumph for Astor Bannerman, showcasing our expertise in inclusive design and commitment to excellence. Selsey is poised to set new standards, ensuring that all members of the community can fully participate in the vibrant tapestry of life that defines this coastal town.
