access to free sanitary products in secondary school toilets

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

we want sanitary products available in our school toilets. this is because some people may go to unsafe measures in order to control their menstrual cycle due to a lack of product availability
we did a petition within our community and 76.2% of people with periods said they would benefit from this

we want this because some people may feel uncomfortable asking and they may not have period products available to them

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or Parliament is responsible for.

Decisions about access to free sanitary products in school toilets are a matter for individual schools, not the Government or Parliament.

As a result it is not possible for the Government or Parliament to take the action you have requested.
