Description: The Roll out the Barrel Trust having coordinated family empowerment projects around water accessibility would receive regular on the ground information from our Ugandan Representative Doreen to highlight the desperate need for a solution to lack of feminine hygiene resources in the communities that we are working in. In order to gain a deeper insight into the menstrual hygiene management methods that our rural girls and women were using Doreen gently approached this subject with female community members and confirmed that most only had rag cloths or leaves available. Doreen conducts community outreach programmes in 7 villages in Luweero where there is an inadequate amount of boreholes to serve the over 1000 families residing in these villages. Many families only have swamps as their primary water source and journey 2km several times a day to provide enough water for their families.
