Behind Closed Doors: A Practical Guide to creating Trans+ inclusive toilets
Clare Reddington, CEO of Watershed has written some guidance for Third Sector Against Transphobia which aims to help venues and organisations take confident, proportionate steps to ensuring your toilets are Trans+ inclusive.
We believe that everyone has the right to access public services and community spaces with dignity, safety and respect - and to be themselves whilst doing so. Toilets facilities are an essential part of that access. They should be safe, appropriate, dignified and available to everyone.
This briefing aims to help organisations and service providers think practically about their toilet provision and take confident, proportionate steps to ensure their facilities are Trans+ inclusive, in the light of the updated
Equality and Human Rights Commission’s (EHRC) revised Code of Practice relating to the Equality Act 2010 (EqA) provisions on services, public functions and associations (the Code), which became statutory guidance on 5th August 2026.
