Just checked and it's a year since I mentioned this, which is way longer than I realised. So I'm mentioning it again.
MENSTRUAL SUPPLIES ARE NOT CHEAP, BUT FOR ANYONE WITH A PERIOD THEY ARE, OF COURSE, AN ABSOLUTE NECESSITY.
Sadly, the reality is that they're a luxury that many refugees and asylum seekers living in the UK cannot afford. Many people living in poverty resort to using toilet paper, old scraps of fabric or nothing at all.
Bloody Good Period was started by Gabby Edlin, who decided something needed to be done to create a sustainable flow (pun intended) of menstrual products for those who can't afford to buy them. What started as a whip-round on Facebook is now a growing charity, with a vision to achieve menstrual equity - where the simple fact of bleeding doesn't stop anyone from participating fully in society, or life.
We are now partnered with 40 asylum seeker drop-in centres around the country, helping more women and people who menstruate have bloody good periods.
