A GROUP of young people is helping to tackle period poverty by launching a survey for 12 to 19-year-olds to give them the chance to share their views on period poverty and the stigma surrounding it. Volunteers from Bolton-based charity Youth Leads UK are behind the initiative and will take results from the survey to decision-makers at a local and national level. The campaign, called Be Period Proud, comes as many young people find it challenging to speak up if they’re having trouble accessing period products. The research from the survey will be passed on to headteachers and politicians, including the Mayor of Greater Manchester and the Minister for Women and Equalities.
