Since summer 2011, Sheffield Hallam University have chosen to remove sanitary bins from the cubicles in the women's toilets across the campuses. Instead they say that one bin out near the bins is suitable.
This is an issue that affects all women at Hallam, and staff. The law states that "Suitable and sufficient sanitary conveniences shall be provided at readily accessible places.". We believe that one bin outside the cubicles is not "readily accessible" and even discriminates against those with mobility issues.
All women should have the right to privacy if they want it.
Please sign this petition and help us get our bins back.
Totally ridiculous. We have rights to basic facilities. stop trying to save money on things that actually matter for us students

This is honestly just gross. Who came up with this idea? It makes things way more difficult than they need to be and it feels pretty unhygienic for everyone.
