North Lanarkshire Council has made sanitary products available to all pupils in North Lanarkshire schools.  For the Council, the provision of sanitary products programme has two aims. The first is to tackle a poverty-related injustice in a non-stigmatising manner; the second is to confront taboos that surround the issue of periods.

Sanitary products are freely available to all pupils in Chryston High School.  They are in toilets in “help yourself” baskets.
