Petition Use the Tampon Tax to subsidise sanitary products for girls of school age

We believe the money gained through the tampon tax should be used for Period related issues.
Children of school age currently receive:
Free school meals
Free prescriptions
Free or subsided transport
Free contraception
We believe that sanitary wear should be added to this list.
