Over 1,500 businesses across the UK participated in the annual awards, where a team of independent inspectors assessed their washrooms and toilet facilities.
Now in its 37th year of honouring restroom room excellence, the award is held in high regard by retail shopping centres and hospitality facilities across the country.
According to a poll of 2,000 adults, only eight in 10 Brits would venture into a public toilet unless it was completely unavoidable. But there’s no need to worry for Yorkshire residents, as Junction 32 ensures its facilities are so spotless and welcoming that they’ve earned the prestigious public toilet of the year accolade.
All puns aside, Junction 32’s facilities go above and beyond, featuring a private baby changing room as well as breastfeeding facilities. It is also certified as stoma-friendly by Colostomy UK, with all accessible toilets equipped with essential stoma necessities. Baby changing tables are available in both restrooms, while the outlet’s ‘Present from Tom’ scheme boasts free sanitary products for all guests. With a focus on excellent service and inclusivity, Junction 32 ensures a comfortable experience for guests while they browse unbeatable discounts at its wide range of stores.
Darren Winter, Centre Director at Junction 32, said: “We’re delighted to have taken home this prestigious award at the Loo of the Year Awards. We take great pride in ensuring our outlet shopping centre is in the best shape possible to deliver an outstanding experience for our customers, and this includes our facilities management. We want our visitors to come back time and time again, so ensuring we offer the best services is very important. After all, when you’ve got to go, you’ve got to go!”
Junction 32 is home to over 85 shopping outlets, offering discounts of up to 70% off.
