Free Essential Toiletry Kits and Period Products

Posted on November 28th, 2025

Essential Toiletries Kits will be available for free in every one of the 36 libraries around West Sussex. All customers need to do is to visit their local library and find the display of the Essential Toiletries Kits. They can then help themselves to a bag, add a child’s toothbrush and then tick a sheet for our data records to say which group best represents their household – families with children/people with disabilities/older people or other if the previous categories do not relate to their circumstance.
Essential Period Product bags are also available.
As part of the Household Support Fund 7, the library service has been given funding to provide 2000 packs of period products for anyone to take away. The packs will be available to collect from all 36 libraries week commencing 24 November, while stocks last.
The Period Product bags will contain:
• 2 x Sanitary Pads
• 2 x Tampons
• 2 x Sanitising Wipe Sachets
