It is a sad reality that many girls and young women living in our local area are experiencing period poverty where they can't afford to buy monthly sanitary products. These girls are having to use things like socks or having to miss school altogether during their periods. We want to make sure every school can provide their pupils with sanitary products in school as well as holidays.

If you could donate a pack of sanitary towels at one of our local collection points or donate a small amount of money on this page, you will be helping girls and young women stay in school whilst maintaining their dignity. Let's face it being on your period can be grim at the best of times but without proper sanitary products it must be horrendous.

We are part of the red box project and give our time voluntarily to coordinate in our local areas. Find out more here http://redboxproject.org/
