Bright Ideas

 

Welcome to Bright Ideas! This is the place where you can submit any idea that you think would improve life at Royal Holloway. Just submit the idea, wait for the votes to come in, and we’ll take it from there.

Whether it’s microwaves in Tommy’s Lounge, or STI testing on campus, every idea you send in matters to us.

Before you get started with submitting an idea, you should check out our new guide on writing a great idea. Don’t forget to have a look at what the current ideas are first – and why not vote on them while you’re at it! Make sure to check out how we’re doing on previously submitted ideas, and if you’ve got any questions, drop us an email.


Making great things happen

We realise that it's not possible for us to always be aware of the issues affecting you on a day-to-day basis. From those small quality of life improvements through to bigger wins for everyone, sometimes it can be hard to find a place to have your say. That's why Bright Ideas exists. It's your opportunity to let us know where we should focus our attention so that we can continue to make student life better at Royal Holloway.

    Put period products and hygiene bins in all gender toilets on campus

    Current
      Put hygiene bins and free period products in all bathrooms on campus, including mens toilets. Most mens toilets on campus don't even have a bin to put period products in, meaning that people have to find somewhere else to dispose of their used period products. Furthermore, by only having period products and hygiene bins in women's and gender neutral toilets, it implies that people using gender neutral toilets are seen as an extension of women which is deeply problematic and harmful. All bathrooms in accommodation should also have hygiene bins, including those assigned to men. I can personally attest that this is currently not the case.
