About Period Place
Useful data without false certainty.
Period Place helps people find free period products by the details that affect their choice: product type, brand, materials, access and how recently somebody found stock.
What the evidence labels mean
- Confirmed at this venueOfficial information names this venue and confirms the listed product details. Current stock can change. For example, a library lists the pads it provides.
- Covered by the local schemeOfficial information covers this venue category through the local scheme. Current stock and the exact brand can change. For example, a council includes public libraries in its scheme.
- Reported by the communityA visitor reported what they found and the report was reviewed before publication. Current stock can change. For example, a visitor reports finding tampons at a community centre.
Community visits
A required structured status—such as available, low stock or empty—makes reports comparable. Ratings and comments are optional. Accounts help prevent duplicate reports, but community identities are not displayed publicly.
UK coverage
The platform accepts locations throughout England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Coverage now includes evidence-backed libraries in Scotland and Northern Ireland, plus NHS patient access points and selected libraries in England. Wales remains a visible data gap, with the official Welsh Government map linked as an alternative. See the live coverage and source breakdown.
