Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am raising money for Bloody Good Period, which is a charity on the forefront of fighting period poverty in the UK. Menstrual supplies are not cheap, but are of course a necessity for anyone with a period. 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 enterprise with a vision to end period poverty. You can find out more at... https://www.bloodygoodperiod.com/
