Period care for Schools
Teenage years are hard enough. Let’s make this time easier by providing discrete, eco-friendly period care products at school.
Research shows that up to 50% of school aged girls have missed a class due to their period.
Over 20 per cent of respondents who are high school-aged said they wore period products for longer than the recommended four hours, because of the cost.*
1 in 4 young people reported experiencing problems getting period products when they needed them.**
