Save Bakewell free Public Toilets

As part of money saving by Derbyshire County Council, the three public toilet facilities in Bakewell and are affected.

The council state that they don’t have a DUTY to provide public conveniences.

As the centre of them second highest visited National Park in the world, and being a rural town visited by many from afar , this seems very unwise. Coach parties (who bring a deal of economy into our town) will no longer have a loo at their drop off at the agricultural centre. Many visitors are also elderly. Our local families will also be affected when the park toilets close and they have to abandon their family water play/picnic/sports activities to walk all the way into town and hope they have 20p for the town Centre toilet before it’s door closes. 

Please sign and share our petition to help keep our town civilised and thoughtful of our residents and visitors.
