Scotland Is the First Country to Make Access to Tampons and Pads Free and Universal

From Glamour.com: “Scotland made history yesterday when it became the first country to offer its citizens free and universal access to menstrual products, including tampons and pads. That’s right—totally free period supplies for all who need them.

Scottish Parliament voted unanimously on November 24 to pass the Period Products bill, according to CNN. The new law means the products will be available in public buildings, which includes schools and universities, and authorities must make sure they’re offered for free.”
