This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We understand you are concerned about the provision of accessible toilet facilities. However, hospitality businesses including restaurants and cafes are already required to provide accessible facilities such as toilets in order to comply with the Equality Act 2010. You can find out more about this here: assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/85008/business-quickstart.pdf

Further, the Government has committed to requiring new buildings to be built with accessible toilet facilities, and has announced funding for the installation of such facilities through the 'Changing Places' scheme. You can find out more about this here: www.gov.uk/government/news/changing-places-toilets-for-severely-disabled-people-to-be-compulsory-in-new-public-buildings

You could start a petition calling on the Government to increase the funding available for the installation of accessible toilets in existing buildings, through the Changing Places scheme for example, if that is something you'd like to happen.
