Toilets help to transform seafront
21 March 2016
The new Aberavon Leisure & Fitness Centre will transform the famous seafront into one of the most accessible in Wales – helped by its toilets.

The £13.4m facility for Neath Port Talbot Council incorporates a pool with moveable floor, spin room, dance suite, sports hall, youth facilities, café and community rooms. Further helping set the centre apart are its toilets, which include two state-of-the-art assisted accessible Changing Places facilities.
Supplied by disabled toilet specialist Clos-o-Mat (Total Hygiene), and installed for main contractor Heron Bros. by mechanical engineers FP Hurley, the Changing Places mean anyone who needs a carer to help them go to the toilet will still be able to enjoy all the facilities on offer – in both the ‘wet’ and ‘dry’ areas of the Centre.
Cllr Ali Thomaas, OBE, leader of Neath Port Talbot Council, said: “The leisure centre is the latest in a series of improvements to transform the area. The Centre will have all the necessary modern facilities, and will be a focal point in enhancing our strategy for regenerating the whole area.”
The Changing Places toilets at the leisure centre complement a further facility in the area, at the new Port Talbot Parkway Station.
