We aim to provide free sanitary pads for women in the UK because we believe that feminine hygiene products should be a human right, not a luxury.

There is a lot of stigma around menstruation and we need to address it in order to understand the challenges that half our population face. Period poverty is real and we believe that period equity should be real too. Poor menstrual hygiene can lead to physical and mental health issues and we want to combat this.

Menstruating is natural, and menstrual products are a necessity and should be treated like such.

Research shows that poor feminine hygiene can lead to health issues such as Toxic shock syndrome

It is also estimated that the average woman spends £18,000 on period related products in her lifetime.

In public toilets other necessities are free - soap is free, toilet paper is free so why aren’t feminine hygiene products?

Research also suggests the Covid-19 pandemic has worsened the issue: lockdowns have limited people’s access to menstrual hygiene support in many countries (especially those where such support was already negligible).
