Morrisons in Redruth has invested £50,000 in its baby change areas to create a "more comfortable and convenient environment" for the town’s parents, and completely refurbished the customer toilets.

The baby change facilities have been totally redesigned to an open plan format, to allow for larger prams and buggies. It has been refurbished to incorporate baby feeding chairs for both mums and dads. ‘Quiet’ technologies have also been incorporated to help when babies are asleep.

Elsewhere the customer toilets have been refurbished, with new toilets, toilet cubicles and sinks. In addition, new clean and modern vanity units, mirrors and tiled panels have been fitted. Brighter LED lights and new vents have also been fitted which will have a beneficial environmental effect, with reduced energy consumption and carbon emissions.

General manager Ian Dawes said: “We have made a significant investment in our store’s facilities. We hope that mums, dads and regular customers will agree that the improvements have been transformational. We expect it will result in an easier and more pleasant shop for everyone who visits our store.”

The changes are part of improvements include the redesign of stores, the extension of opening hours, the updating of car park controls and the removal of trolley lock facilities.
