How to apply to the Changing Places Scotland Fund – 2025

The Changing Places Toilets Scotland Fund is now open for applications!

The Scottish Government is committed to extending the provision of these facilities across Scotland’s communities and, through its Changing Places Toilets Scotland Fund, will provide grant investment of £10 million in the financial years 2025/2026 and 2026/2027 to support this.

Inspiring Scotland is delivering the fund on behalf of the Scottish Government, with expert support from Promoting A More Inclusive Society (PAMIS). A co-founder and Chair of the UK Changing Places Toilet Consortium, PAMIS has played a central role in the development of this fund, reflecting their long-standing commitment to improving accessibility for people with additional support needs across Scotland.
