Rally of Anglia members Saturday 7th November 2015 at Winterton Dunes in support of keeping Public Toilets open during daytime over winter. Originally there was a plan by Gt Yarmouth Borough Council to withdraw from funding half of their public toilets and possibly close them, but this one at Winterton has been adopted by the local Dunes Cafe management and Coastwatch unit to be kept opened.
Lowestoft pensioners congratulate the local enterprise of keeping toilets open in this favorite tourist location. Sunday 8th November 2015 Anglia Region pensioners brave the wet and windswept car park at Winterton Dunes cafe Saturday 7th November 2015 before returning home after the rally.
