REMOVE tampon tax, live life to the max!

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

As a group of Girl Guides, we believe sanitary products should not be viewed as a luxury item but as a necessity for all girls and therefore should not be taxed. In the U.K. the tax has been reduced to 5% but still holds difficulty for many girls. Sign this petition to help end Period Poverty.
