Fund free female sanitary products for all women and girls
I would the government or parliament to help get female sanitary products free for all women and girls. One in 10 young women has been unable to afford sanitary wear at some point.
According to a study by Plan International UK, one in 10 girls and young women aged 14-21 has been unable to afford sanitary wear at some point. This situation exacerbates the issues surrounding period poverty, leading to negative impacts on women’s health, education, and emotional well-being.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
