The period kit designed for toilet-free environments
A Woman has developed a portable period kit designed to be used outdoors when there is no access to toilets or handwashing facilities.

The ex-Napier University student now hopes to launch The Product in 2024.
Ms Reid, from East Kilbride , said it was aimed at hikers, kayakers and Military Personnel .
But she told BBC Radio's programme the flask-style design may also appeal to festival goers who were concerned about using portable toilets.
The kit contains a reusable menstrual cup and antibacterial wipes, allowing The Cup to be cleaned on The Go .
It also has an applicator which can be used without the need for Clean Hands , so in situations where there is no access to toilets or running water.
Ms Reid, a Product Design graduate, was inspired by her own experiences on The West Highland Way.
She added: " I was due my period the entire time and it was just such a hassle.
" I Am aiming to reduce the hassle and give people more confidence to get outdoors while they are on their period. "
Ms Reid said women in remote locations could be At Risk from urinary tract infections (UTIs), toxic shock, or infertility due to poor hygiene when there was no access to toilets, handwashing facilities, or places to dispose of used sanitary products.
