Free period products available across campus

Period products

As part of our ongoing commitment to supporting students and staff with cost-of-living pressures, free period products are now available at more than 20 campus locations.

The University has secured a multi-year contract to make free products available at multiple locations, funded locally by colleges and departments at the point of access. 

We thank our colleagues in Cleaning Services who have taken the lead to maintain and refill these. 

Throughout 2023 the teams in Academic Services and Campus Services prioritised free period products to students from selected locations in the Student Hub, Accommodation and at the Guild of Students.   

A range of sustainable products were made available, free to anyone who needs them, with the purchases supported by DARO and the kind donations of some of our alumni.  

In 2024, to ensure this provision would be able to continue and grow sustainably, the new contract has now been signed.
