Tell us: how are you affected by the reduction in public toilets in the UK?

England and Wales has lost one-third of its public toilets in the last two decades, according to figures published by the Royal Society for Public Health last year.

In Scotland, data obtained by the Liberal Democrats last year found a similar decline over a period of about 15 years. Northern Ireland appears to have lost a smaller share of its public facilities, though local reports also indicate closures in recent years.

Older people and those with disabilities or health problems may be particularly affected by a lack of public toilets.
