You should always encourage children to wash their hands by showing them how to do it, and by setting them a good example, all our portable toilets come with a hand wash facility so we expect all our customers to use these and wash their hands to promote good hygiene standards.

Remember this, it takes at least fifteen seconds to wash your hands properly – this is about how long it takes to sing ‘Happy Birthday to You’ twice through!
