It's been a busy few days since we broke the news that a man has been appointed Scotland's first period dignity officer.

Jason Grant's role has sparked debate across the globe - and the outrage shows no sign of slowing down.

Here's the inside story 🧵

On Monday, Scotland became the first country in the world to make sanitary products a legal right through the Period Products Act.

Mr Grant was also revealed as Tayside's period dignity officer, who is responsible for delivering a campaign to raise awareness of this.

The job is funded through the Period Dignity Partnership and hosted by Dundee and Angus College.

It has a salary range of £33 - £36k.

The period dignity officer will work in a team that covers Dundee City Council, Perth College, Dundee and Angus College, and Angus Council.
