Are girls in your group suffering from period poverty?

For my daughter, access to the period products she would need to continue to function as normal through this seismic life change was never in doubt. Our family budget would allow for the purchase of sanitary products for her each month and she attends a school where period products are made available free of charge in the toilets. However, while my daughter views this provision as a given, the reality is that more than one in ten schools still don’t provide period products, in fact 13 percent of girls in the UK can’t access free sanitary products in their school or college.
