Closed Fund free period products

Closed on

We want the Government to make it so women don't have to pay for menstrual products. They're far too expensive and are a basic necessity.

There are several cases of women and young girls being unable to afford them and having to go out with a sock in their underwear instead of a pad.

Some students have to go to the medical room to collect as many pads they can get because they find it difficult paying for them. The price is ridiculous, and women have to use menstrual products every month. Making them freely available would be much better.
