Petition Action

Legislate to make the provision of single sex changing facilities compulsory.

Petition Details

We want Government to legislate to make provision of single sex changing rooms compulsory for every private or public facility that the public requires to change or try on clothing. This means retailers, clubs, swimming pools, gyms, schools, employers, hospitals etc.

Additional Information

Women don't feel safe changing in the same facilities as men. Many high street retailers & employers have begun to use unisex changing areas, allowing men into women's changing facilities. This is embarrassing for many men & intimidating for women & girls. Women don't want to be undressing in the same space as men. There have been crimes of men filming in such facilities & posting on the Internet. Please help end this dangerous policy before something terrible happens.
