Councillor Danny Gee with some Market Traders with the Loo of the Year awards

Chorley Council is flushed with success after scooping three national awards for its public toilets.

The council received a top accolade of a Platinum Award for the toilets at the Covered Market in the annual Loo of the Year Awards; was also a Category Winner for the Best Market Toilets, and received an Attendant of the Year Award for the staff who keep the toilets to such a high standard.

The toilets, on Cleveland Street, won the awards following an unannounced check by a fully trained and authorised Loo of the Year Awards inspector.

Councillor Danny Gee, who is responsible for the town centre, said: “We are extremely proud to have achieved this award for the second year running and we are going to do our very best to make sure our success carries on into next year.

“We received the platinum award for the first time last year after previously being awarded with the gold award so to have improved over the years is a great success.

“Our staff have done a great job in keeping the toilets clean and to a high standard and they should be proud of the work they have done which has led to our national success.

“We pride ourselves in the facilities that we offer to our locals and visitors and we often get great feedback from people who use the toilets about how well they are looked after by our staff.”

The aim of the awards, supported by Visit England, is to encourage the highest possible standards in all ‘away from home’ washrooms and the public toilets are judged against strict criteria by the independent inspectors.
