Concern was raised that the current logo seemed to be non-inclusive as it clearly showed; a man holding a child&#8217;s hand, a single wheelchair user and a female changing a baby. The association works and campaigns for an ever increasing number of user groups and so it was agreed by the committee that we should no longer use an image that only highlighted a small fraction of the groups we endeavor to support.<\/p>\n<p>The working and design criteria that was set\u00a0then\u00a0was to recreate a\u00a0logo and offer up an image that was:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>easily recognisable and quickly identified &#8211; as before<\/li>\n<li>carried a simple strap-line message<\/li>\n<li>modern, clean and smart<\/li>\n<li>could be easily recreated on all media<\/li>\n<li>would allow future merchandising<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The original strap-line considered was &#8220;At your Convenience&#8221; but this was recently superseded by &#8220;For your Convenience&#8221; offering the reader or potential customer a marketing opportunity to bring the BTA in to help with toilet related problems and dilemas.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.btaloos.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/New-Logo-Letterhead-and-Cards.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1550 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.btaloos.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/New-Logo-Letterhead-and-Cards.jpg\" alt=\"New Logo - Letterhead and Cards\" width=\"893\" height=\"580\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.btaloos.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/New-Logo-Letterhead-and-Cards.jpg 893w, http:\/\/www.btaloos.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/New-Logo-Letterhead-and-Cards-300x195.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.btaloos.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/New-Logo-Letterhead-and-Cards-600x390.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 893px) 100vw, 893px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Above is the final concept design that was selected and agreed by the Management Committee and this image will now be attributed to all future printing and design publications.
