Please provide the following information regarding gender-neutral, unisex, all-gender, or mixed-sex toilet facilities across your force’s operational estate:

Total Spend: The total financial spend (including refurbishment, construction, and signage costs) incurred over the last 24 months (or 2024/25, 2025/26, and 2026/27 to date) on creating, converting, or building gender-neutral, unisex, or all-gender toilet facilities.

No cost have been incurred other than signage to provide unified naming convention across the Force. Toilets were refurbished but their use has not changed.

The Force have spent £213.09 plus VAT on signage in the past 24 months for toilets.

Total Toilet Number: The total number of gender-neutral toilets opened/converted for the same timeframe.

None

Single-Sex Conversions: The total number of traditional single-sex male or female toilet blocks that were permanently converted or removed, for the same timeframe.

None

Station Breakdown: A breakdown of the spending and facility count by individual police station, HQ, or operational site name, but only if the cost limit has not already been reached by the previous two questions.

We are unable to say which site signage was specifically allocated to as the signs included spares for future use.
