Last year they supplied 3,246 toilets to the events which take place in areas including
Edinburgh, Blackpool, Nottingham and Southampton. This year’s event will see 750,000
women of all ages and abilities taking part in the 5km races aiming to raise £46
million for the charity.

 

Lorraine Mace, Toilet Hire UK events manager, is co-ordinating the Race for Life
contract. She is pleased to be playing a part in the Cancer Research UK event again
this year. She said:

 

More people than ever before are going to take part in this year’s Race for Life
series and we are delighted to once again play a significant role in the organisation
of such a worthwhile event.

 

Some Toilet Hire UK staff are taking part in the races in St Helens and Gloucester
so we have even more reason to support the event this year.”

 

Toilet Hire has also provided toilets for the Royal Lancashire Show, the Glastonbury
Festival and the Queen’s Golden Jubilee celebrations. Based in Haydock, Toilet Hire
has an additional 11 depots across the country enabling them to provide toilets 
and washing facilities for events nationwide.
