What the charity does

Recognising the trauma and anxiety caused by not having access to essential menstrual products, we work to create a menstrually equitable society by providing asylum seekers, refugees and those in poverty and otherwise displaced people and their dependents with unrestricted access to high quality, free period supplies of their choice, accompanied by menstrual and female health education.
