Something I haven’t covered much on social media just yet... what is going to happen to the project come 2020? My plan is to carry on business as usual for now, until both secondary and primary… instagram.com/redboxcentralb…

Thanks, as always, for your support @JanetDaby 🙌 We’re looking forward to being a part of this discussion - free products in schools is such a great start, but there’s much more work to be done in the fight for #MenstrualEquity 👊 #RedBoxProject #MenstrualJustice

The announcement of a 'task force' to tackle #periodpoverty is welcome. But what is the scope of its work and will it consult great organisations like @RedBoxProject that have picked up the slack during years of government inaction?



We’ve been a little quiet the past few weeks but keep your eyes peeled.... we have a new box being dropped on next week at a new school!


Today the Government will announce that, as of early 2020, they will extend their offering of free menstrual products to primary schools too. That means all schools and colleges will have free menstrual products by early 2020, in England, Wales and Scotland. ❣️❣️❣️

Providing free period products in schools is a vital first step in addressing #PeriodPoverty, but we mustn’t forget the underlying causes Millions of children are trapped by a rising tide of poverty (>70% in working families) - we can & must do better independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…


A happy day for our South Central Bedfordshire coordinator yesterday - emptying the donation bin in Morrison’s, Houghton Regis for the first time! It has only been there… instagram.com/redboxcentralb…
