Glastonbury Festival is set to host the UK’s first squat-and-go women’s urinal when it opens this week. This revolutionary toilet is expected to solve the age-old problem of women having to wait in queues.
Bristol-based entrepreneurs Amber Probyn and Hazel McShane have designed what they describe as "the UK’s first touch-free women’s urinal", in their quest for 'pee equality' called PEEQUAL. The urinals will be available to over 100,000 women at Glastonbury and will be positioned near the Pyramid Stage and in the Stone Circle.
McShane said: "Women shouldn’t have to wait in longer queues for something as simple as going for a pee" adding: "PEEQUAL is about making the women’s festival toilet experience quicker, safer, and more sustainable; recognising that women’s time is just as valuable as men’s."
