Community Toilet Scheme
Look out for the ‘use our loo’ stickers in these participating local businesses in Thornbury:
- Hawkes House

Look out for the ‘use our loo’ stickers and you can use the toilet facilities in these businesses without having to make a purchase, knowing they are being maintained to a good standard through being part of the ‘Community Toilet Scheme’, which is a national scheme to improve toilet provision in towns across the country.
Local business can receive a grant from the Town Council to make their facilities available to the public, without requiring them to make a purchase.
