Denbighshire Period Project In Case of Emergency locations confirmed
Denbighshire County Council’s Period Dignity team have been hard at work, supplying many public buildings with in case of emergency (I.C.E) display units, which include a variety of period products. This work has been funded through the Welsh Government’s Period Dignity Grant.
There are now 15 confirmed ICE locations around Denbighshire that are available to the public to access for free, and are there in case anyone is caught short and may need to use them.
The Display units include a variety of Eco-Friendly and Plastic Free period products, and can be found at many public building restrooms, including many of Denbighshire County Council’s libraries. These are also available in Accessible Restrooms.

Denbighshire County Council, through the Welsh Government Period Dignity Grant, have secured funding to support Denbighshire’s residents and visitors to access free emergency period products. These products are supplied by TOTM, a multi-award winning period care brand who hope to inspire better, sustainable ways to manage periods.
Councillor Julie Matthews, Lead Member for Corporate Strategy, Policy and Equalities said:
“It is great that there are now 15 in case of Emergency locations in Denbighshire. Period products should be accessible to all, in a convenient and easy to use manner, and I am very pleased that many of Denbighshire County Council’s public buildings are offering this.”
Third sector organisations like charities, community centres and public sector organisations can register to become a ICE location by emailing perioddignity@denbighshire.gov.
