Our current partners
phs Group
We’ve joined forces with the UK’s largest hygiene services provider, phs Group, to create the Dispose with Dignity campaign. This campaign is tackling the taboo around male incontinence and pushing Government to legislate for the provision of incontinence bins in male toilets. This will allow men to dispose of their pads and any associated products, safely, hygienically and with dignity. As part of the campaign, we worked with phs Group to create a new male incontinence bin, which businesses across the country will be stocking to create a better world for men dealing with incontinence.
In August 2024, we've launched BOG STANDARD, a set of guidelines designed to educate and ensure businesses and the public sector are providing men with the facilities they need to dispose of incontinence waste with dignity. The campaign highlights the number of missed moments that men face as a result of their incontinence and what businesses can do to offer better provision. The Campaign Toolkit, includes a range of resources about how your business can support men living with incontinence.
