Inglewood Place Toilets Bring Colour, Accessibility And Convenience To The Area

A new public toilet block opened this morning on the corner of Taranaki and Dixon Street which includes colourful lighting and Wellington's first Changing Places facility for people with disabilities. The site includes two standard and three accessible toilets with baby-changing facilities, automated timed doors and hands-free controls. Two will be open 24/7, the other three from 7am-11pm. The sixth is the Changing Places facility, a place where people with multiple or complex disabilities can use the toilet, change, and shower. The Changing Places facility is available for access only by those registered with the organisation. Wellington City Council's Chief Operating Officer James Roberts says the toilets have been placed where they are to make them more visible, accessible and attractive. 'Putting the block in a more visible place, installing new CCTV cameras in the area and adding beautiful lighting will help reduce anti-social behaviour – while also providing a much-needed toilet stop for the public in this busy spot. 'The building, with its ribbed timber facade, looks great during the day – and is transformed into a special light show at night.' Advertisement - scroll to continue reading The exterior lighting by Angus Muir Design is managed by the Council and will be changed to reflect awareness campaigns like Breast Cancer Awareness month, and major events like Anzac Day, Christmas, Wellington Anniversary, WOW, and the Jazz Festival. Changing Places was founded in New Zealand in 2017 by Jenn Hooper, whose daughter Charley (19) has profound and complex disabilities that require full-time care and support. Jenn feels immense pride in honouring her daughter and celebrating the opening of the 10th Changing Places room in Aotearoa, and the first for the capital. 'If I brought Charley down to Wellington with my family, as I have, she doesn't get a shower until we go home. Now she can go to this toilet block and have a shower during a week-long visit to Wellington, and I as her carer have the right equipment to safely provide that care. It's game changing. Wellington City Council has done an amazing thing here by catering to this specific part of society. 'Restricting access prevents vandalism and ensures the room is clean and available for those who so desperately need it. It's not about excluding those who don't need them. These rooms are about including those who do.' The new $2.3 million facility replaces the toilets removed from nearby Te Aro Park. They are designed by Council's architectural team to support crime prevention through environmental design as well as being aesthetically pleasing. The Te Aro Park toilets were removed in November 2022 largely due to their position making the space susceptible to crime and anti-social behaviour.

Tireless supporter's work recognised

Taking a break from Friday Club kitchen duties are newly-named dignity champion Kerry Burton (left) and her mother Patricia Andreassend. PHOTO: SHELLEY INON A selfless Timaru grandmother has been named an honorary Age Concern dignity champion. Kerry Burton received her award at Age Concern South Canterbury's Friday Club last week. Miss Burton said she did shed a few tears when receiving her award. Dignity champions are nominated by people in Age Concern nationwide, to celebrate those who have made an impact in their area, supporting the wellbeing and upholding the dignity and value of older people in the community. While a person was celebrated every month of the year, there had not been a Dignity Champion in South Canterbury for two years. Miss Burton said she had been a street child at the age of 15. While her mother had made a point of telling her the door was always open, she had found it difficult to give up that life. She said she would steal clothes off clotheslines to keep warm. Two decades ago Miss Burton had gone to church and changed her life around. She was a mother to five children — Aleisha, Amy, Alannah, Shikota and Danielle — and a grandmother to 15 grandchildren, one of whom, 4-year-old Storm, lived with her. "She's slow in her development, and has just started to walk. "We have had a journey with Storm, but she is my little angel." Despite having her hands full, she had decided 12 years ago give back to the community. She had been a key volunteer at the Friday Club for over a decade, cooking lunches for the event and even getting her mother Patricia Andreassend to volunteer too. She had also prepared lunches at Oceanview Heights School and served on the school's board of trustees. The Age Concern South Canterbury nomination said she had "quietly made life better for many". She said the place allowed her a spot to smile, joke and be silly. "They give me a hard time, always asking 'are you smiling today?'. "I love this place."

Stand Up For Our Seniors: Age Concern NZ Marks World Elder Abuse Awareness Day

Press Release – Age Concern Elder abuse is a serious and often hidden issue in New Zealand. Each year, Age Concern supports thousands of older people who are experiencing various forms of abuse often at the hands of those they trust most. On 15 June, Age Concern New Zealand will join the global community in recognising World Elder Abuse Awareness Day (WEAAD), a time to shine a light on the mistreatment of older people and to call for collective action to ensure dignity, respect, and safety for all older New Zealanders. Elder abuse is a serious and often hidden issue in New Zealand. Each year, Age Concern supports thousands of older people who are experiencing various forms of abuse — including emotional, financial, physical, and neglect — often at the hands of those they trust most. In the 12 months from 1 July 2023 – 30 June 2024, Age Concern was involved in 2817 cases of elder abuse. 88% of alleged people who caused harm were family members, of which 50% were adult children or grandchildren. 'Elder abuse is not just a private issue — it's a community issue,' says Karen Billings-Jensen, Chief Executive of Age Concern NZ. 'On World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, we urge all New Zealanders to learn the signs of abuse, speak up, and support older people in their lives and communities.' This year, Age Concern's theme is 'Spot the Signs'. It calls on individuals, whānau, community groups, organisations, and businesses to help raise awareness and take appropriate action. How You Can Help: Learn to spot the signs of elder abuse and how to respond. Check in with older friends, neighbours, and whānau. Support Age Concern's work through donations Attend local events during 15-22 June, listed on Share messages of support on social media using #WEAAD and #AgeConcernNZ If you or someone you know is experiencing elder abuse, contact Age Concern's Elder Abuse Response Service at 0800 65 2 105 (weekdays 8.30am-4.30pm) or the national 24-hour helpline at 0800 EA NOT OK, for free, confidential support. Let's work together to create a society where older people are safe, respected, and empowered.
