Tampon Tax Fund

The purpose of the Tampon Tax Fund is to allocate the funds, generated from the VAT on sanitary products, to projects that improve the lives of disadvantaged women and girls. This funding was the focus of a BBC Look East news feature on Friday evening, & showed our lovely Lesley, senior support worker at The Magdalene Group, talking about the difference the funding has made here at The Magdalene Group. Lesley had also appeared on Radio Norfolk earlier the same morning - to listen in, follow this link (55 minutes in) : https://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/play/p06j44rp
