Anglesea Changing Places facility

Anglesea Changing Places facility

The Great Ocean Road Coast Committee (GORCC) has partnered with Surf Coast Shire Council and the Victorian Government to construct and maintain an accessible change room and toilet for people with high physical support needs.

The Adult Changing Places (ACP) facility in Anglesea (at the Four Kings car park) will have an adult-size change table, ceiling hoist and enough space for carers to move around. The site in Anglesea was chosen due to its accessibility, proximity to key travel routes and lack of similar facilities in the area.

There are only 70 ACPs throughout Australia and this facility is designed to provide dignified and equal opportunities for people to experience the beauty of the Surf Coast.

GORCC already has plans to refurbish the existing toilet facilities at Four Kings, and this work will include upgrading the exterior cladding on the existing block to match the final design of the new Changing Place facility.

Construction will begin August 2019 with works expected to be completed by October 2019.
