What the petition asks
Between 2013-15, 4% of men aged 16-59 experienced domestic abuse and around 12000 men were raped. It can be hard for men to access help in these situations. Helpline information is available in ladies bathrooms but is uncommon in gents. We propose a UK-wide poster campaign for men's toilets.
