The vital importance of public toilets is often overlooked. We all know how awful it is to need the toilet and not be able to find an available one, but many vulnerable groups are disproportionately affected by a lack of public toilets in public areas, due to their need to access facilities quickly and/or privately:

Public toilets across Great Yarmouth are set to undergo an £155,000 revamp as part of a significant drive to improve provision in the borough, a recent news report in the local media has been able to suggest.
A consultation will take place later this year on whether to close the public conveniences in Guildfor’s Stoke Park, a recent news report in the local media has been able to suggest.
Despite the lack of funding, more public toilets are required in Carmarthenshire for its 185,000 residents and three million annual visitors, according to residents and councillors.
