Story
When we started All Yours on 1st December 2020, Cara and I just wanted to provide some boxes of period products to people in our local community who were struggling to afford or access period products over the Christmas period.
Our simple ambition quickly turned into a much larger scale project, and in the last twelve months we have provided over 4500 period boxes, with the help of over thirty volunteers, across West Berkshire, South Oxfordshire, Reading, Basingstoke, and Wiltshire.
We have partnered with over 40 organisations working within the community including food banks, community larders, schools, youth centres, community cafes, local libraries, and homeless shelters.
We have supported women of all ages to have a safe and dignified period and helped Mums, Dads, Aunts, Uncles and Grandparents to ensure that their families have the period products that they need each month.
We have worked to ensure that people get a choice of the products they can request via our website, and we have provided reusable products to those who wanted a long-term solution to their struggle to afford period products.
We have been told some heart breaking stories of period poverty and helped many people who had been using improvised, unsafe alternatives to manage their periods.
Your support on JustGiving means that we can purchase more reusable products, shop the bargains on traditional products like period pads and tampons, and can post out boxes that are not easily hand delivered by our volunteers.

Thank you,
