All my waterworks in my home work fine except the upstairs bath tap, I can hardly get much cold water from it, only a bit comes out, when I turn the tap towards off, it comes out a bit faster, but not much, weirdly enough the sink in the same room works fine as does the toilet, and other downstairs taps, so why can I hardly get anything from this one cold tap? how can I make the water come out faster, it takes years to run a bath

Could be a partial blockage, if all other c/taps ok.

. Just knock your water supply off, remove cover of the tap with a flat screwdriver. Remove screw inside with a posi and lift off tap cover. Get an adjustible spanner and remove the inner body and lift out (may need a stilson on tap wrapped in a towel to protect the tap). Once removed have a look at the washer, look inside the tap to see if its damaged/partially blocked.
