Rejected petition Make sanitary products free for all females across the United Kingdom

End period poverty and support girls and women who can’t afford sanitary products by making them free.

More details

Sanitary products are considered a “luxury item” and therefore have to be paid for. The menstrual cycle is not a “luxury” experience for any female at any age. We shouldn’t have to pay for a product that is vital to a females well-being.
