Finding a loo during lockdown

Hello

Many of us are trying to get out and about for exercise during lockdown. This can be tricky if you need the loo, as cafes and shops may be shut so you can't just bob in.

There is a website that is trying to list all the loos that are open - it covers England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland:

lockdownloo.com/

We hope you find this useful. It uses a map and can be a bit hard to use.

We also know that many Changing Places are currently closed. There is a website where you can search for them, but it doesn't seem know which are currently closed - changingplaces.uktoiletmap....

Please do post here if you know of any Changing Places that are still open near you.

Thanks

Hello I didnt look at the details but just to remind the readers that there are Disabled toilets which are normally locked and you apply for a key to The Disabled Living Foundation who will send you a key for a £1 fee..It may have gone up now in cost.

I now find that the keys are from RADAR and they cost £4.99.I edited the post to add the information but left the info about the Disabled Living Foundation who can supply all sorts of other info.

Not what you're looking for?
