More toilets in public parks!!!
I am a female from Hackney and I am writing this on behalf of all the females who are not able to just pee in the bush like Males do. Hackney has a lot of green space and parks but there is not many or any toilets in parks. For example Victoria park is massive and has toilets but it needs more and cleaner toilets! Having to witness people peeing in public is disgusting! And worst of it all is during summer when parks are packed and the air is humid and you can smell the urine. There is a lot of pregnant woman, woman on their period or even people with health conditions that may effect them and they will have to use the toilet more often. For example I have ibs and I could go out more comfortably if I knew there will be more toilets. This is very unhygienic and also we have kids in the parks witnessing people peeing. We should also have cleaners on shift daily to keep the toilets clean so it’s not just a dirty mess, if this means we have to pay 20p like in central parks then let it be but please create more toilets in public as we are all humans and we all have needs and sometimes we are not able to go home or we may not live close to home. This should be done to all public parks.
