Tampons and Sanitary pads in Toilet for Emergency.
Category: Wellbeing
I am of the opinion that base on the sensitive nature of the menstrual cycle among our ladies/women coupled with continuous academic challenges sometimes emergency periodic flow may seem inevitable.
As such, I am of the idea that making this items available in our toilet on campus will go a long way in nipping this in the bud. Apart from preserving their dignity it will give them a sense of care and belonging.
With the new student partnership agreement in place as discussed in the last SAGE meeting. The University may rationalize the additional cost of procurement. I suggest we partner with The Simon Community to supply these items or materials which to me will be a win-win situation for everyone.
Please, peruse, ponder and look deeply into this idea and vote for its emergent because there is a man and woman in us all.

Your likes will be appreciated and will go a long way to butress the sensitivity of this idea.
im pretty sure there are sanitary products available already, but yes there should be in all toilets if its currently the odd toilet, there should also be sanitary bins in all toilets as ive heard recently their in every odd toilet
There are products in all toilets as it is a uni wide requirement. If your bathrooms do not have products, let the Student’s Association know and they will sort it.
