WC Toilets to go

The latest service to be axed by Wiltshire Conservatives is public conveniences. These were provided by the old District Councils as a service to the public but Wiltshire Council says it can't afford to run them. The eponymous council says: "We know that public conveniences provide an important facility across a number of areas in Wiltshire. The cost of providing the service, the cleaning, maintenance and repair as well as effects of vandalism and graffiti mean that Wiltshire Council can no longer fund the service. This will mean that certain facilities currently run by Wiltshire Council will be transferred, sold or given to other organisations or groups that may be able to run the facilities themselves. If this is unsuccessful these facilities will close."

WC is running one of its notorious pseudo-consultations on the closures. This can be accessed here.

The consultation closes on December 11th.
