According to a 2015 survey by VoucherCodesPro.co.uk, sanitary products are costing women on average £13 per month, putting women who cannot afford this at risk.
On top of this, the survey said women spend on average £14.50 per month on pain relief and replacement underwear - these are not essential. Sanitary products are the BARE MINIMUM.
