@theperiodproblem: period poverty in the uk, 2026: more than one in ten women can't afford period products. we scrapped the tampon tax in 2021 and called it done. turns out 0% vat on something you can't afford is still something you can't afford. 64% bought food instead. 40% chose gas and electricity. 6% used newspaper.🗞️ and 22% just stayed home. periods are quietly removing women from work, from school, from public life in one of the richest countries on earth. @freeperioduk are now challenging that, supplying organic cottons free of any nasties, free of charge all over the UK 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 #periodpoverty #menstrualhealth #womenshealth #period #genderequality
This is amazing!! I’ve been campaigning for stricter regulations on menstrual products and one issue that came up was period poverty. All the free products in schools, gyms, workplaces etc are non-organic! So pleased to see this
