Council gets £500,000 to refurbish toilets

Toilets across one Welsh county will be refurbished after almost £500,000 was given to the local authority.

The money has gone to Powys council as part of a budget deal between the Welsh government and Welsh Liberal Democrats leader Jane Dodds, who represents Mid and West Wales in the Senedd.

It will see public toilets spruced up in the towns of Knighton, Llandrindod Wells, Llanwrtyd Wells and Rhayader.

The Welsh government said decent, accessible toilets were essential in helping to attract more visitors.
