“🚨 1 in 3 kids leave primary school unable to swim! 🏊‍♀️ Let’s break down barriers—removing VAT from period swimwear and sportswear makes these essentials more affordable for ALL girls, boosting confidence and participation. Periods shouldn’t hold anyone back in sport or life! ✊ ”

WE AXED THE TAX ON PERIOD PANTS BUT PERIODS REMAIN A PENALTY IN SPORTS.

It’s time for the UK government to remove the VAT on period sportswear and help remove the financial, emotional and social barriers that this tax imposes on women and girls.

Last year, the government made a commendable move by removing VAT on period underwear, a step towards gender equity and affordability removing the VAT on period underwear from Jan 1st 2024. However, period swimwear and other sportswear are still subject to a 20% tax. This inconsistency creates an unnecessary financial barrier for women and girls, particularly young athletes, during their periods.

As an organisation dedicated to eradicating period stigma and promoting health equity, we at WUKA, alongside three-time Olympic champion Hannah Miley MBE and notable sports organisations such as Welsh Rugby Union, Watford FC, and Scottish Gymnastics, urge you to extend the VAT exemption to all period-proof sportswear.

Many young girls seem to complain about using tampons and pads. This is hard when it only seems like there’s two options to pick from. Period pants change this WHOLE equation for the better, no leaks, no pain, no change! What do you use/ Wish you used more when you were younger!💜

Yes we know you’ll agree - sports and movement is NOT a luxury! Period sportswear- that includes swimsuits, leggings, shorts- are all taxed at 20% here in the UK.

Last year WUKA successfully won the fight to in the UK making all period pants now a whopping 20% cheaper in line with other period products. However, the government overlooked sportswear… so the fight continues!
