A few times a year for a period of a few weeks at a time when I go to the gym there are people who use the gym facilities to shower etc. Unfortunately this also includes dying their hair. It gets all in the shower, across the floors...everywhere.
The whole mess aside, I am allergic to PPD. Like seriously allergic.
The last time I came into contact with it I ended up in hospital for days. The only reason I'm still alive is because my neighbour saw me collapse on the path.
I always explain this to the gym manager who in the past has let me use the staff changing room and put signs up.
I went to the gym tonight....hair dye everywhere again. I spoke to the new manager who said she knows who is responsible but they pay to use the facilities so there is nothing they can do.
I reasoned that if I had been repeatedly told to not do something and carried on doing it then I'm sure my membership would be revoked. So why won't they take that approach.
Her whole response was "short of following them in and dragging them out, which I can't do, what do you expect me to do"
I just felt so frustrated. It's the only gym round here and it's where I go to destress and it really helps with my anxiety. But now it looks like I'll have to leave.

Morning folks. Just a reminder that yes, Romany and Irish travellers are protected by law under the Equality Act. But to be honest, we just don't think speculative posts or sweeping statements about any group of people are helpful. We've removed any posts that we felt were doing that - the OP hadn't in fact mentioned anything in particular about the person concerned in her first post, as she didn't think it relevant and we're inclined to agree.

Please do think carefully before posting. If the thread becomes too much like Swiss cheese we will have to remove the whole thing, which seems a bit unfair on the OP.

Thanks!
