Require restaurants and fast food chains to provide free sanitary products
Background
I have endometriosis. And I can never access period supply when I start randomly. I want all restaurants and fast food places to legally have to have supplies in their bathrooms, period pads, tampons, female cleansing wipes and anything else important. For all periods we can’t choose when it starts.
Additional details
As someone living with endometriosis, I experience heavy, unpredictable periods and severe pain that can strike at any time — including when I’m eating out. Right now, there is no legal requirement for food businesses to stock tampons or pads. When I’m caught short, I have nowhere to turn: staff often don’t keep them, shops aren’t always nearby, and asking for help can be embarrassing and distressing. This needs to be fixed so we can access FREE sanitary products when needed
