Kitty's Launderette

Our launderette is named in honour of Kitty Wilkinson, an Irish immigrant to Liverpool who is credited as the pioneer of the wash house movement in the UK. Kitty lived in Denison Street in the only home with a boiler, during a cholera outbreak in 1832, amidst fears of poor sanitation and ill health, Kitty invited her neighbours to wash their clothes and bedding in her house saving many lives. Ten years later with the help of public funds, her efforts resulted in the opening of a combined wash-house and public baths on Upper Frederick Street, the first in the UK. We’re proud to continue the legacy of Kitty and the many other working class women who frequented the wash-houses of Liverpool with our launderette on Grasmere Street.

This is a fab place for your laundry needs. The staff are friendly and very helpful. I have used a couple of times recently, a mattress topper and dry cleaning. I would not go anywhere else now. And a special thanks for rushing through the dry cleaning of a suit for me. The suit was pristine.

Very nice and helpful staff. Very good equipment. Drying huge amounts of bedding exceeded my expectations, perfectly dry and cost only around £ 3. I will definitely come back here again. Super laundry, I recommend it very much.
