We are pleased to reveal our new period education kit \u2013 a comprehensive resource for schools and colleges to teach students all they need to know about period products and help break the taboo.<\/p>\n

The kit contains every item from our range of zero-waste reusables and disposables, and is aimed at teaching students and their families about the range of period products available \u2013 with reusables proving an ever-popular alternative.<\/p>\n

\"Period<\/p>\n

Kate Smith, our Co-Founder, said: \u201cOur new kit is the ultimate resource to teach people about all things periods.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is a wide range of products available nowadays and it is important to teach people about the options out there.<\/p>\n

\u201cMany of us never had the opportunity to learn about reusables in school and wish we had made the switch sooner \u2013 and this kit covers all the bases.<\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone\u2019s period is unique, and we hope our kit will help people find the product that\u2019s right for them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Items included in the kit range from our day pads and pantyliners through to tampons, a period cup and two pairs of period pants. Refill options are also available.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It also contains numerous educational resources, including our new-look education cards and both the Time of the Month and Pads4Dads booklets.<\/p>\n

It is expected the kit will also prove popular for health and community centres offering parenting classes.<\/p>\n

Kate added: \u201cIt is so important we open up period education not just to people who have periods, but their families too.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur Pads4Dads booklet \u2013 supported by the fabulous Michael Sheen \u2013 gives fathers all they need to know to have \u2018the chat\u2019 with their children.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is only by opening up the conversation and making period education accessible to all that we can break the taboo.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n
