Story
As bookstagrammers we love a good reading challenge, and as women, we also love anyone who challenges taboos around menstruation and supports those in period poverty - so now we're bringing the two together! You can find more information about Bloody Good Period and their work below.
Inspired by the 2.6 challenge, our team of six bookworms will be reading 2,600 pages each over 26 days, aka 100 pages a day, from 1st-26th May! We would be immensely grateful for any donations you would be willing to make to sponsor our challenge and support people who menstruate but are unable to access the information and products they need.

You can follow our progress on Instagram using #PagesForPeriods and by following our individual accounts, and we will post periodic (no pun intended) updates here. Thank you so much for your support!
MORE ABOUT BLOODY GOOD PERIOD:
We get period products to asylum seekers, refugees and those who can't afford them. Bloody Good Period believe that everyone who has periods, and everyone who cares about someone who has periods, should be able to talk about this bloody stuff. Everyone should have access to the information and products they need. No-one should feel ashamed because of a healthy biological process.
