I speak to Lizzy Hall, Founder the of Hygiene Bank, one of the UK's fastest growing banks of hygiene products. For many Low income families, especially those relying on food banks hygiene is a luxury they can't afford and long before people visit a food bank do they stop purchasing hygiene products.
Unfortunately, this level of poverty affects many in the UK and has far reaching effects on families, peoples mental health, sense of pride and prospects.
Lizzy speaks about the Hygiene Banks beginnings, Hygiene poverty, Period poverty and how to donate and get involved in this community powered organisation
