Rejected petition Make sanitary products free for women under 21 years old.

In 2017 it has been reported that girls in the UK are missing time at school because they can't afford sanitary products during their periods. This is completely unacceptable.

More details

Girls should be free to be educated without having to worry about something as basic but essential as tampons or sanitary towels.
