Like many places across the country, public toilets in Bingley were threatened to be closed for ever. However, thanks to the local community and engagement from local people our town will keep these facilities open for the foreseeable future.
Note: Bingley Walkers are Welcome wants these toilets to remain open and we will support any campaign going towards that direction. When nature calls, walkers of all ages will always be grateful to be able to use public toilets!
