Free Period Products

Our work in the highlands

We aim to ensure that period products are freely available in Highland and that this work will be carried out in a way that respects the dignity of anyone who needs to access products.

To inform our arrangements for provision in communities, a public consultation was carried out between July and August 2022. Free period products are now available from collection points across Highland or by a home delivery service.

Free period products have been supplied in schools in Highland since 2018/19. During the 2022/23 school year we will engage with young people in schools to help us to understand how this provision is working and to consider what improvements can be made.

For further details of the steps we are taking in both schools and the community, you can read our Statement on Exercise of Functions (external link).
