About ToiletSearch.uk
ToiletSearch.uk helps you find a public toilet anywhere in the UK, with a free map and a shareable page for every town and city.
Where the information comes from
All toilet information comes from OpenStreetMap, the free map of the world built by volunteers. It currently includes 13,999 toilets that are open to the public or to customers. This copy of the data was taken on 14 November 2026.
Councils close, open and change toilets all the time, so details can be out of date. Please check signs on site, especially opening hours and charges.
Toilets that are private or only for staff are left out. Toilets for customers (for example in shops or cafés), for passengers, or that need a key are included and clearly labelled.
Add a missing toilet or fix a mistake
Because the data is open, anyone can improve it. Each toilet has a Fix details link that opens it on OpenStreetMap. You can edit it there with a free account, or leave a note for local volunteers to check.
To add a toilet that isn’t on the map, open OpenStreetMap, zoom in to the spot and choose Edit, or right-click and choose Add a note here to describe it. Changes appear on this site the next time the data is refreshed.
What the labels mean

- Whether there is a charge to use the toilet, and how much, if known.
- Wheelchair accessible
- Marked as usable by wheelchair users. “Limited” means partly accessible.
- RADAR key

- Changing Places

- Baby changing
- Has a baby changing table.
- Customers only
- In a shop, café or similar, for customers.
Privacy
This site has no adverts and never sells your data. The only cookies are optional Google Analytics cookies, which are set only if you click Accept on the cookie banner.
- Your location: the “near me” page asks your browser for your location. It is used only on your device to sort toilets by distance and is never sent to us.
- Postcode and place search: if you search for a postcode, or a place that isn’t one of our towns, the search words are sent to postcodes.io to find where it is.
- Maps: map images are loaded from OpenFreeMap, which does not use cookies.
- Analytics (optional): if you accept, we use Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages are used. It records things like the page address, your rough location (town or region), device and browser. We don’t send searches, postcodes or your exact location to Google, and advertising features are turned off. You can change your mind at any time with Cookie settings, and Analytics data is deleted after the retention period set in our Google Analytics account.
- Emails: if you email us, we use your email address and message only to reply to you, and we never share them.
- Directions: the Directions button opens Google Maps, which has its own privacy policy.
