Free Sanitary Products Available for GCU Students!

You can now order free sanitary products to be sent to your house through the following link:  https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/NBJWMQ7. 

GCU Students are able to collect free sanitary products (including re-usable and sustainable options such as reusable cloth pads and menstual cups) from  GCU Students’ Association.

The provision is a partnership approach from both your University and the Students’ Association.

The products are located:

• In the female and accessible toilets in levels 1 and 0 of the Students’ Association Building.
• on all levels of the Library.
• Reusable options (sets of washable pads and menstrual cups) are available from the Students Advisers in our Advice Centre (drop in Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm).

The BBC has a video explaining how to use a menstrual cup safely.

The introduction of free sanitary products for GCU Students has been available since March 2018, as part of a campaign from the Students’ Association in partnership with the University.
