It all started with a wait in line for a pee.
That got fellow Bristol students Amber Probyn and co-founder Hazel McShane thinking; "There has be equality for women at events." The first urinals were introduced for men in 1866!
Amber and Hazel have successfully launched Peequal, the UK's first squat-and-go women's urinal. These are designed to be 2.7 times faster than traditional portable toilets, solving a problem that affects half the world's population.
Hear their story including:
- Raising £250K during COVID despite being an event-based business
- What they did when the suppliers let them down on the eve of the big launch at Glastonbury 2022
- How they manage as a team, and supplied toilets to the London Marathon 2025.
