The BTA \u2018Where can I go?\u2019 Campaign was launched to BTA members at the BTA Conference held at the Stratford Hotel, Stratford upon Avon on 16th September 2009.<\/p>\n
The Campaign recognises the need for BTA to change focus from a \u2018top down\u2019 approach – directed primarily at Central Government, to a \u2018bottom up\u2019 approach\u2019 \u2013 directed primarily at local government \u2013 (and commercial providers) the actual source, and we believe, the authority responsible for provision of publicly accessible toilets.<\/p>\n
There has been a realisation that a \u2018call to action\u2019 is needed with the support of other associations and organisations that will add more than the sum of the constituent parts to the force of a new campaign.<\/p>\n
The result is a campaign that we believe will change attitudes to meeting a basic human need \u2013 provision of clean, hygienic and safe publicly accessible toilets that are available where and when needed for all types of users.<\/p>\n
This is a campaign that considers the needs of all types of toilet users who all need somewhere to go: the old, those with special needs, babies and children, women, visitors to the UK and those with anxieties about using public toilets.<\/p>\n
The campaign targets will be:<\/p>\n
The benefits will include:<\/p>\n
The Campaign strategy is to involve all associations and organisations who have an interest in the provision of publicly accessible toilets and other groups who have particular interest in the well being of their members or followers (e.g. residents associations, Woman’s Institutes, Old Peoples Associations, Parents Associations, Tourist Organisations, and Consumer Associations etc). We will also involve workers in the night time economy (e.g. police, drivers, taxi drivers, road workers, NHS mobile staff etc) who have particular difficulties in locating \u2018out of hours\u2019 toilet facilities. All of these groups become the Campaigners.<\/p>\n
The Campaign tactics include:<\/p>\n
A BTA \u2018Where can I go? Campaign Toolkit is available to support campaigners including:<\/p>\n
The Campaign will be led and coordinated by BTA who will monitor progress.<\/p>\n
