Stop closure of public toilets in Brighton & Hove by the council


Stop closure of public toilets in Brighton & Hove by the council
The Issue
Brighton Council are proposing the closure of at least 15 public toilets, including disabled ones from 1st April. These include ones in many popular parks such as Stanmer, Wild Park, Preston Park and many along the seafront including Ovingdean, Rottingdean, Black Rock, King Alfred.
This simply can not happen, not only does this affect the general users going for a walk or using the area, but sporting events, such as parkruns and many community, educational and other groups that use these open spaces. Many events simply will not be able to take place without these toilets.
It will also do nothing to help the cleanliness of the city which will become increasingly unpleasant in the height of summer with all the visitors to the city. These important public health facilities should be being increased in number, not decreased.
B&H council have put a petition on their website that is almost impossible to access and sign so I’m setting this up to allow everyone to have their say.
Full list of proposed closures:
Black Rock, Brighton seafront
Blakers Park, Brighton
Easthill Park, Portslade
Greenleas, Hove
Hollingbury Park, Brighton
King Alfred, Hove seafront
Norton Road, Hove
Ovingdean Undercliff Seafront
Preston Park Chalet, Brighton
Queen’s Park Play Area, Brighton
Rottingdean Recreation Ground
Rottingdean Undercliff Seafront
Saltdean Oval
St Ann’s Well Gardens, Hove
Stanmer Village, Brighton
Vale Park, Portslade
Western Esplanade, Hove
Wild Park, Brighton
