I don't know the rules. I don't even know where to find the rules. I don't want it for washing machines (that's in the kitchen and another issue), I want it for my shaver... or my toaster...
It has been 13 years and I've not bothered so I'm not going to bother now.
"Utility room" in a London 1BR. You're funny.
hippy-
You can have a shaver socket in a bathroom.

Well I decided that SE26, SE25 and BR3 weren't doing it for me so went full TN.
The regs DO allow standard plugs but would require 3m to the sink/bath. If you had that space you'd likely have a utility 😁
Forget what the Tories say about European rules being foisted on us, we wrote most of the electrical ones and have been major contributors to all the updates upto 2016. Englanders love a rule.

I thought s long as you used a fused spur >600mm from the edge of the bath/sink you were ok as washing machines are appropriately rated for water?
Have the rules changed?
Personally it's utility room or bust for me, bathrooms are for shitting in.
