The County of Prince Edward is now providing free menstrual products at the two large community centres as part of a pilot project.
The municipality has installed dispensers in both lobby washrooms at the Prince Edward Community Centre (PECC) and the Wellington and District Community Centre (WDCC).
Following a deputation from members of the public in 2022, Council directed staff to explore the feasibility of a pilot project to provide menstrual products at public community facilities. Staff will monitor results of the pilot at the two community centres and report back to Council this fall on a long-term plan for free menstrual products in additional facilities.
