That's great. I am an incontinent person with a bad back that means I can't always contort myself in small cubicles and who therefore could often do with the extra space to change that these changing places offer.
However, if I use a standard disabled toilet, I often get strange looks when I use those, I can't imagine the looks I'd get if I used a changing places facility. Outwardly, I appear 'normal', I don't have an obvious disability and that leads to some issues...

Does the UK offer any other means of identification that you could use?
