Background

Parents and carers shouldn’t be forced to change their child on dirty floors or anywhere with no privacy. I am asking for a law that requires all businesses and venues that provide toilet facilities for their customers should also provide suitable baby-changing facilities.

Additional details

We are calling for a basic standard that if a venue provides customer toilets, parents and carers should be able to safely and hygienically change their baby there. Parents should not be forced to change their baby on a toilet floor, in a pram, on a chair or in another unsuitable public space simply because the venue has chosen not to provide a changing facility.
