Fund and distribute first-period boxes through schools and healthcare settings

Petition Details

We ask the UK Government to fund the provision of first-period boxes with essential menstrual products for girls, through schools and healthcare settings. We believe this could help educate and provide products to girls in less fortunate settings.

Additional Information

We believe many girls do not have access to a trusted or appropriate adult to discuss menstruation with, or may not feel comfortable doing so. Therefore, in our view, first-period boxes allow girls to access clear, reliable information privately and at their own pace, supporting understanding and confidence during this stage of development.

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.
