Petition and challenge information
Nominate friends or do it yourself…. Find out why below.
Why?
Ever stood bare foot on your toilet floor? How about in a public toilet? Not quite so appealing is it?
I have to be bare foot to be lifted onto a public toilet – so my shoes don’t create more drag. In a public toilet it’s pretty yucky.
Other disabled people have to lie down on the toilet floor for pad changes.
This challenge creates awareness and opportunity to sign a petition of support for change – in the form of more Changing Places toilets. These are toilets with a hoist, changing bench and space. They offer hygiene, dignity, safety and equality.
There are very few of these yet they are needed by hundreds of thousands of disabled people.
