The bathroom and changing room opened at Gould Reserve, near Takapuna Beach Reserve and playground, on Monday.
Features of the facility include a height-adjustable adult changing table and sink, a ceiling track hoist, a shower, handrails and a toilet with space on both sides for two carers to assist its user.
Devonport resident Kimberly Graham, whose 17-year-old son Finlay Butcher has athetoid cerebral palsy, previously said a lack of fully accessible bathrooms in New Zealand made it hard for her family to get out and enjoy activities together.

If so, I'd love to hear from you - please email me at caroline.williams@stuff.co.nz… View moreKia ora. I'm working on a story for Stuff about high-density housing and electric vehicles (EVs).

a fully functioning e-commerce website built on a user friendly platform (www.website.world...) This is a NZ Based provider with awesome support.
Some Stock: Materials, beeswax, other ingredients, tools, patterns, recipes (perfected recipes and technique with 2 years of proven effectiveness).
A list of supplier contacts for all materials.
All artwork: photography, videography (youtube channel videos), packaging templates, logos, professionally created artwork with the rights to all artwork handed over.
I had minimal sales as after i built the business, I got super busy with my regular business and this just fell by the wayside.
Note: this website is an e-commerce site built on an NZ based platform with awesome support with Website World. Integrated postage and payment schemes all in place.
You can choose to run with the current products or adapt the website to suit another product line if you wish.
I can provide graphic design support if you wish to go down this track.
This is a great little business for someone wanting to be creative and earn from home - if you choose to stay with the product. Otherwise it is a fully functional ecommerce site that can be adapted to any other product or service you wish.
Do not hesitate to contact me if you wish to know more.
