Test Valley Borough Council (TVBC) will investigate the possibility of providing support to eradicate period poverty following a motion being brought before it. A motion to ask TVBC to provide free period products in all its buildings, as well as contributing a payment to schools to do the same, had been brought before the council on January 27. Following debate, it was decided the motion should be considered by the council as it falls within its purview. At a cabinet meeting on March 10, councillors decided to have offices draw up a report into period poverty in Test Valley before committing to a course of action.
