Public toilets
The Community Toilet Scheme is a borough wide scheme aimed at providing clean, safe and accessible public toilets in more convenient locations for residents and visitors to the borough.
Under the scheme businesses allow members of the public to use their toilet facilities during their normal opening hours without the obligation to make a purchase. Several of the premises offer wheelchair access and baby changing facilities.
We are constantly seeking to improve the scheme so would welcome feedback from members and users. If you have any suggestions or concerns about the scheme, feel free to contact Waltham Forest Direct to let us know.
