Reducing period poverty and promoting period positivity.
Our aim is to reduce period poverty and help anyone in need to stay healthy and well through donations of period products, essential items and one-to-one support, which is completely free and never means tested.
We make it easier for everyone to talk about periods by opening up the conversation about periods across genders, cultures and generations, highlighting the stigma and inequalities that exist and working together to create a more period positive future.
We believe strongly that improved menstrual education is necessary for all and aim to normalise talking about periods to stamp out mis-information and end period stigma.
We are also helping to bring about policy change through campaigning to eliminate period inequality and participating in regional and national research studies and menstrual activism networks
