Dear Members and Colleagues,<\/p>\n
Another year has flown by and we have seen many changes in the toilet landscape. Closures seem to be the dominant feature still although there has been a significant slowing down as councils are trying to find alternative solutions to the problems that are now being faced with visitor numbers dropping and street urination on the increase. The BTA Conference will be a great opportunity for myself and the management committee to get together with everyone to discuss real issues and network with many others who experience similar challenges.<\/p>\n
The conference agenda will include a range of topics and presentations to hopefully stimulate thoughts and ideas. This is a good opportunity for open discussion and a potential search for solutions to issues that we all face in providing the public with safe, clean, away\u2010from\u2010home toilets. We will attempt to examine the issues of accessibility, equality and social inclusion as well as the problems faced by residents, user groups, tourists and visitors to this country in actually locating clean, well\u2010managed and clearly sign posted public toilet facilities.<\/p>\n
We have arranged a series of presentations to look at new innovative products including eco\u2010friendly\/water\u2010saving toilets, infection\u2010control equipment and daily toilet systems management. In a very exciting development, the BTA has recently been in consultation with the DCLG and MENCAP to provide a UK Toilet Map for their growing number of Changing Places toilet locations across the UK. This initial pilot project is expected to roll\u2010out into a country\u2010wide mapping system for all \u201caway from home \u201caccessible toilets provided by local authorities and private companies.<\/p>\n
This is also the official invitation to all members to attend the 2013 BTA Annual General Meeting which will take place at 2:15pm directly after the Conference Lunch.<\/p>\n
