I am aware of the Standards and am somewhat familiar with the details in them

What has been your experience of access to and within public buildings? - Put your answer in the box

I can't access public buildings, public toilets, many, shopping centres, schools, malls, many, many places due to all the toxic cleaning and toxic air fresheners that are used. A simple, healthy solution for the public as well as staff that work there all day would be to use fragrance-free products and open windows. There are lots of people with asthma, lung conditions, autoimmune diseases etc that are affected by these products. I cannot go anywhere, I stay at home so I am not affected by these poisons, my life is pretty much what it has been for you in lockdown, all the time. Not all disabilities are visible.

What do you think the Premises Standards Review should focus on? - Put your answer in the box

Don't use toxic products, besides harming people, they end up being washed into our oceans. Be environmental aware!!
