Pride & Periods
Many of our libraries offer free menstrual products, no questions asked.
Periods aren’t shameful. Our Pride & Periods scheme is here to tackle period poverty and help anyone who needs free menstrual products, no questions asked.
Our libraries are trusted, safe spaces for all. Many of our libraries provide free menstrual products:

You can request tampons and pads for all flows and preferences, as well as maternity and bladder weakness pads by completing a simple, discreet form in the library and handing it to a member of staff.
While exact matches and amounts can’t be guaranteed, we will do our best to provide you with what you request, or something similar.
Pride & Periods is supported by our partner organisations East of England Co-op, Bloody Good Period and Suffolk Community Foundation.
