The Alliance will continue to campaign for improved public toilet provision across the transport network, and the rest of the city. This includes having truly accessible facilities so everyone can navigate the transport network with confidence.
Great to see @hinabokharild.bsky.social asking the Mayor about the total number of toilets at Tube stations that have been closed permanently since January 2021 π½

An image of a long corridor of public toilet cubicles with metal doors on the right, blue walls, and pink pillars. On the left are handwashing basins. At the bottom of the picture overlapping the image of the toilets is a dark blue background with text reading 'Refurbished toilets at Piccadilly Circus Stationπ’'
π’Westminster City Council has completed its latest public toilet refurbishment at the Piccadilly Circus Underground Station.
πUpgraded male and female toilets, a family changing toilet, and baby-changing amenities within both male and female areas.
πToilets located at Exit 1 of the station.
Congratulations Jo-Anne and Gail!
Great thread @kappacino1.bsky.social . We agree. Local authorities, public bodies and the government need to take the lack of provision seriously. This is an issue of public health, inclusion and more.
Strategies can provide a framework for local authorities to coordinate the actions needed to improve public toilet provision locally. Strategies can offer a more joined-up approach for auditing and evaluating current provision, listening to residents and making decisions based on need π½
A photo of a mix of 6 people, men and women, holding a large banner saying 'Loos for Haringey'. Below is a dark blue background overlapping the photo with white text reading 'Haringey Council have published their Toilet Strategy and Action Planπ’'
Haringey Council is now one of four London councils with a published toilet strategy and action plan π’
This would not have been possible without the tireless campaigning of Loos for Haringey, supported by John Miles from KOVE, an Alliance Member.

New Morden station toilets are open! ππ½Thank you to campaigners on the Alliance, More Loos for Merton, @carolinerussell.bsky.social @ageuklondon.bsky.social and others.
An image of the doors of two toilets. One door has two signs - one reading 'Baby changing' and the other saying 'All gender toilet'. The other toilet door depicting baby changing facilities and accessible toilets. At the bottom of the photo is white text on a blue background reading 'New toilets at Morden Station'
The inside of an accessible toilet, includes a sink, toilet, grab rails and a bin.
New toilets now open at Morden Underground station - including a gender-neutral toilet, an accessible toilet and baby-changing facilities π½
We hope this momentum continues alongside work to increase awareness about the locations of toilets π

A big thank you to all our Alliance members and followers for your support this year. We're pleased to have grown our presence on @bsky.app π½
We're looking forward to continuing our campaign in 2026 for better public toilet provision in Londonπ
Hear from Julia from @inclusionlondon.bsky.social about navigating the steps at Seven Sisters Station. We need TfL to prioritise step-free access as well as accessible toilets.
It is crazy that loo provision on the Underground is basically accident of history depending on what company opened the station and if they survived long enough. bsky.app/profile/lond...
βοΈAcross the day and another event on Saturday 22nd on Kilburn High Road, they collected 180 signatures for a petition calling for Camden Council, Brent Council, and TfL to invest in and maintain decent and sufficient publicly accessible toilets in and near to Kilburn High Road.

Hear from Julia from @inclusionlondon.bsky.social - a member of the London Loo Alliance.
Julia discusses the new 'accessible' toilet at Seven Sisters Underground Station. Action needs to be taken by TfL to ensure the people who need these toilets can actually use them!
