During Ruth Cadbury MP's debate on period products in schools, I was delighted to highlight the extension of the popular Department for Education scheme as the Minister for Children and Families. Since our Period Product scheme launched in January 2020, it's been fantastic to see that so many schools and colleges have been using it.
As a father of two young girls, I want them and every girl in this country to never have to worry about having period products available at school and I want it to be something they feel comfortable speaking about with their teachers and peers.
