Require the NHS to provide free period products
We want the Government to ensure free period products are available through the NHS in England, such in GP surgeries, hospitals, clinics and pharmacies, so that anyone who needs them can access them without cost.
Period poverty affects many people in the UK, with reports showing that a significant number struggle to afford basic period products. This can lead to health risks and missed education or work. Providing products free on the NHS would reduce period poverty and support public health and dignity.
