Baby changing facilities? : Sun Jul 01, 2012 3:42 pm  

Hi all,

I am a Saints season ticket holder and follow them home and away. I am hoping to bring my 3 month old son to his first ever rugby match in the Widnes v Saints match next Sunday but just wondered, does anyone know if there are baby changing facilities anywhere in the away end?

Cheers in advance

oh, and i dont recall seeing any baby changing facilities in the stadium, im assuming there is some sort of baby changing shelf type thingy area in the ladies toilets, as that often seems to be the case in public buildings. But then i have never been in the ladies toilets, best bet is to phone the stadium and find out my good sir. contact details should be on the club site www.widnesvikings.co.uk

I believe that the idea is to use either the Ladies or the Disabled Toilets. I am sure that i have seen a fold down table in the Disabled, not used the Ladies.

The baby changing facilities are definatly in the Disabled Toilets, so uni-sex. Confirmed by a member of the staff on Monday evening. Enjoy the game.

I remember that being a massive bone of contention at the time. The club were particularly annoyed that Powers had raised this point without actually asking any of the stewards at the ground if there were any.

Thanks everyone. Really pleased that there are the facilities in the disabled toilets - my wife doesn't come to the rugby so it's me, my dad and my lad coming sunday.

Really looking forward to taking my lad to his first match, even if we won't have a clue what's going on and will probably cry all the way through!

Cheers again
