Many of us know what it’s like to lend a tampon or a pad to someone - anyone - who needs one. 

It doesn’t matter if it’s your sister, a friend, or a complete stranger in the loo. It’s an unwritten rule that we always help out in an emergency, if we can.

What about a woman living in a refugee camp in Bangladesh? Would you help her out too, if you could?

Around the world, thousands of women, girls and people who menstruate live without access to the safe sanitary products they need, putting their health and safety at risk.

But ActionAid is working to end period poverty.

So if you know what it’s like to need a tampon or a pad, and to be helped out by a stranger, please pass the favour on. Help us to end period poverty for good.
