Can't find anything to back this up, either from .gov site or any other camping/camp site info, other than a facebook screenshot of this very same statement, sent to me last night.
QUOTE
We will be reopening all our Club campsites in England from 12 April 2021. Based on the latest Government guidance issued 8 April, we are pleased to be able to open toilets and shared washing and cleaning facilities excluding showers at Club campsites in England which have them, when we reopen on 12 April.
We are working really hard to ensure as many campsites as possible can reopen these facilities on 12 April, however due to time constraints and operational issues not all campsites will have toilets and shared washing and cleaning facilities open on 12 April. Please continue to check our list of campsites below.
UNQUOTE.
They then go on to confirm a long list of sites that will be opening on the 12th, and will have toilets and wash facilities open (but not showers).
After a quick chat with a (Private, not club) camp site owner in England, and them "looking in to it", they suggest this is a mistake, and refers to Ireland.
The latest on CAMHC for N. Ireland suggests that's not the case!
Confused!
Anyone else know what's going on?
Any links to the elusive latest government guidance from 8th April?

Sorry to reply to myself but after a bit of trawling I've found the relevant guidance here. It says:
"Campsites and caravan parks will be permitted to open for leisure stays provided that the only shared facilities used by guests at the campsite or caravan park are receptions, washing facilities (including facilities for laundering clothes), public toilets, baby changing rooms, breastfeeding rooms, water points and waste disposal points. Shower facilities should be operated so as to ensure no household mixing takes place. This would involve either assigning shower facilities to one household group/support bubble, (i.e. making them private), or running a reservation and clean process (whereby one household can exclusively book the shared facilities for a fixed time, and the facilities are cleaned between reservations and kept well-ventilated). Other facilities - receptions, facilities for laundering clothes, public toilets, baby changing rooms, breastfeeding rooms, water points and waste disposal points - should be cleaned regularly and kept well-ventilated and guests should try where possible to limit their interaction with other households whilst using these facilities."

Thank you.
That link was the missing piece, so very helpful.
I appreciate many sites won't bother, and I suspect many sites that can make (enough) money with "Own facilities only" customers, may well continue along those lines, and keep their facility blocks closed (and their workload down).
But for those sites that want to open up... with as many facilities as is allowed... then they need to get on the ball, as it appears quite a few aren't even aware of these latest guidlines, and are still working on the Mid-May date.
Thanks again.

Good news DK168.
Is that a private/Non-Club Site?
The thing is, the loos etc are there for those that want/need to use them. Those that don't can carry on with plan A, and use their own facilities in their own unit.
Got to be a good thing... just as long as everyone plays ball at and around the shared facilities, as far as hygiene, social distancing, and covid-compliant consideration are concerned.
The updated .go.uk guidance (Dated 8th April '21) was linked above, by chrisandsandra.
Repeated here, for those that missed it...
https://www.gov.uk/guidance/working-safely-during-coronavirus-covid-19/hotels-and-........
It's a private site.
I also found the same information on C&CC and CAMC subsequently (I missed chrisandsandra's post, sorry!).
