For homeless women, it really is that dreaded time of the month. With limited or no access to sanitary products, they're often forced to go without. 

We want the government to give homeless shelters an allowance to buy sanitary care, the same way they do for condoms.

Until there is a new parliament and Secretary of Health, we are asking for a response from the Chief Executive of the NHS – Simon Stevens.

To show your support please sign and share the petition. Then follow us on Twitter or Facebook, or find out more at thehomelessperiod.com
