The UK's leading etiquette coach has given advice on the rules around portable toilets ahead of festivals including Wireless, TRNSMT and Reading. Victorian Plumbing has partnered with William Hanson as searches around “portaloos” rose by 72% between May and June.

From how not to make eye contact to using a shewee the right way, William shares a list of the top 10 etiquette tips that Brits should follow this festival season.

Joe Pascoe, Chief Marketing Officer at Victorian Plumbing, said: “As British festival season kicks off, our normal day-to-day “toilet etiquette” seems to completely change as we head into these large outdoor music events, mostly falling completely down the drain.

“Here at Victorian Plumbing, we take toilets and bathrooms seriously, so we have reached out to William Hanson for some simple yet important tips that we should follow when we ditch “normal life” and enter the world of madness during festival season.”

Willam Hanson said: “As a nation we look forward to outdoor festivities, therefore it's crucial we respect the facilities in the best way possible. Cleanliness is next to godliness and good manners go a long way, so my goal with these tips is to elevate the nation's experience this summer.”
