Council provides period products to local communities

Ceredigion County Council in partnership with local community groups and organisations, and through funding from Welsh Government’s Period Dignity Scheme, are ensuring that people have access to period products in the community.

 

A number of local groups and organisations have received a stock of period products which are available to be distributed to individuals facing hardship within our communities.

 

The Council’s aim is to ensure that tampons, sanitary towels, or sustainable alternatives are available to people from low income households in Ceredigion who cannot afford them.

 

Local community support groups and organisations have a wealth of knowledge of their local areas, and will be able to support those in need through ensuring they receive these products at this particularly challenging time.

 

To find out which groups or organisations hold a stock in your local area, please contact on 01545 570881 or clic@ceredigion.gov.uk. Products are also available at Plascrug, Lampeter, Cardigan, Aberaeron, Tregaron and Llandysul Leisure Centres.

To learn more about other grants and assistance available to those facing hardship, go to the benefits section on the Council’s website: www.ceredigion.gov.uk/resident/coronavirus-covid-19/benefits/.
