“Hackney Council are planning to sell this site, despite the hard work of Clapton residents to secure a lease last year.Public toilets are essential to our local economy and our public health. We plan to refurbish the toilets and make them fit for use once again, with an events space and licensed bar in the gents.” https://www.change.org/petitions/don-t-sell-our-public-toilets“
