Guests at this year’s National Eisteddfod have voiced their anger at the state of the festival’s toilets, which they claimed were “not fit for purpose.”
After arriving at both the main site and the campsite, guests at the national celebration of arts and culture in Tregaron, Ceredigion, said they were upset to see that many of the toilets were blocked, the floors were dirty and many of the facilities had no running water for handwashing.
Many pointed out the lack of facilities for women on their periods and one woman pointed out that, although the disabled toilet was fully fitted out with handrails and an alarm cord, the entrance was on a raised step which was not wheelchair-accessible. She told the BBC: “They need to look at the facilities that they put on the caravan field and the main Eisteddfod site itself. It’s just not good enough.” You can get more Welsh news and other story updates straight to your inbox by subscribing to our newsletters here.
