Permanent toilet attendants keep our public toilets safe, clean and accessible for everyone in the community, as well as for tourists. East Lothian Council want to remove permanent attendants from the public toilets in Haddington, Musselburgh and North Berwick and replace them with a mobile attendant that will travel between all three facilities.

Without a permanent attendant to keep watch it is likely that standards will fall and the toilets could become a target for vandalism or drug use. They could even end up closing altogether.

This also feeds into a wider issue, where public toilets are falling into disrepute and disrepair, like those below:

Let’s save the people that take pride in keeping these toilets safe, clean and accessible. Please sign and share the petition.
