Free provision of Period Products

West Lothian Council is committed to making sure everyone who lives, works or visits West Lothian and needs period products can pick them up for free at an easily accessible pick up point - with no questions asked.
Did you know we offer an online ordering and collection service for reusable period products?

The form will gather basic contact details in order to process your order, monitor uptake of the service, confirm collection details and gather feedback on the service. If you would like more information on how your data will be used please read our Reusable Products - Privacy Policy [68KB]
