Last night, hundreds of women (and plenty of men) donned bright red clothing and gathered outside of parliament to march together to #FreePeriods.

The protest was calling on Theresa May to “provide free menstruation products for all girls already on free school meals” after charity Freedom4Girls discovered that young girls in Leeds were missing school because they couldn’t afford to buy sanitary products when they were on their periods.

The march was organised by activist and campaigner Amika George, one of Stylist’s Women of the Year 2017, alongside The Pink Protest.
