A really useful piece I think - good old Wikki. There was always a tap at low level with which to wash by hand. Always felt much cleaner. I agree that the drying element is the one that is difficult and lack of drying may lead to fungal and other issues perhaps. It seems that access to clean water is key. Would be good to get the views of our Muslim colleagues.

Subject: [ACCESSIBUILT] Paperless toilets
We are refurbishing our toilets in parts of the Civic Centre and
considering the use of a paperless toilet that has a washing spray
inside the pan and a warm air drier, also within the toilet plan. These
mean there is no need for toilet paper.
Does any have any feedback about the acceptability of this type of
toilet for Muslim toilet etiquette?
Thanks
