Cornelius’ Story
Cornelius is advocating for the increased accessibility and quality of public toilets across Islington. The adequate provision of public toilets is particularly needed by more vulnerable populations in hotter months when staying hydrated is essential. Cornelius also describes how the heat makes it difficult to sleep, leading to improvised solutions like using cardboard on windows to block out the sun. His story emphasises the need for both better adapted buildings and public amenities in the face of increasing temperatures.
